Parkway Council Foundation

The Parkway Council Foundation is a coalition of cultural and educational institutions and businesses surrounding the Benjamin Franklin Parkway in Philadelphia. The Parkway Council's mission is to accelerate the transformation of the Parkway into a great urban park filled with great cultural institutions, inviting gardens, active public spaces, and exceptional programming that welcomes and engages everyone and enhances adjacent residential communities. The Council is both leader and collaborator with city government and activated stakeholders.

To that end, the Council works with its members, the City of Philadelphia, and other civic leaders to facilitate the development of under-utilized spaces and promotes programming in outdoor spaces throughout the entire Parkway.
