West Central Park
An open, beautiful nonprofit gathering space and garden in West Olympia supporting a resilient, connected community
Spring Fling!
We're getting ready for our Spring Fling on Sunday, May 5 at Garfield Elementary from 2 to 4pm. All of you in the WCP neighborhood and community are invited to come celebrate the past 10 years AND, more importantly, to throw out ideas for the next 10. PLEASE join us for music (the Jacked Lords on tap) treats, kid fun, and sharing ideas so that WCP can continue to be a safe, beautiful gathering place for our community.
Our Mission
The West Central Park Project is committed to maintaining a walkable neighborhood and a resilient, connected community. We believe that having a beautiful space for the neighborhood to enjoy will enhance both the community and the economy surrounding it. And we hope that YOU will join us in creating and sustaining this vital space for generations to come!
How to Grow A Park
Growing a Park
The corner of Harrison Avenue and Division Street is one of the central intersections of West Olympia. It sat untouched for many years after old Rowland Lumber Company building was torn down in 1997.
Our original vision for this project was to build a lush pedestrian park that would allow for a creative and beneficial use of this vital corner. And thanks to the support from our local community, that vision has become a reality.
