About the Venue

The Sharon Center Outdoor Playground at Sharon Woods is a large, newer inclusive playground built as part of Great Parks' park improvement program. Official materials describe a roughly 10,000-square-foot playground that is more than twice the size of the former site and designed to offer an inclusive, accessible play experience for children with a wide range of abilities. Families benefit from adjacent parking, indoor restrooms at Sharon Center, nearby picnic areas, and creek access in one of the region's most established destination parks. The design takes cues from Sharon Woods' rocky outcrops, waterfalls, and local wildlife, giving it a more distinctive place-based feel than many standard playgrounds.
