Garfield Park Conservatory COVID-19 Update 2/28/2022:
Effective for visits starting March 2, 2022, face coverings and the vaccine requirement will be lifted and visitors will no longer be required to provide proof of vaccination or wear a mask in order to use indoor park facilities.
While face coverings are not required, we strongly recommend that individuals continue to wear face coverings if they are unvaccinated or immunocompromised, or if they are interacting with people that are unvaccinated, including children under the age of five. Additionally, visitors may choose to continue to wear a mask, and we fully encourage and support that decision. All Conservatory staff and volunteers will respect and accept all individual preferences with regard to face coverings.
We are free but please make a reservation online to ensure there is space available on the day and time you’d like to visit. Walk-ups are welcome if there is space available. Reservations are added each day at 10am, Wednesday-Sunday. You may see some blocked out dates into the future because we are only taking reservations two weeks in advance.
Reservations can be made for parties of up to 9 people. When reserving a time, please indicate the number of children and adults in your party. Every person in your party needs to be included in your reservation. If your party is 10 or more you will need to book as a group. Group bookings are available on a limited basis.

Hours: Wednesdays 10am-8pm and Thursday through Sunday 10am-5pm.
