Work from the Park (with your littles!)

"Work from the Park" events are back this year at Valade Park to bring a moment of fresh air, sunshine, and nature into your work day!

Cokarē and the Detroit Riverfront Conservancy are partnering to offer parents wishing to work from the park 2 hours of supervised nature-based play, storytime and a related activity for their littles (for 3-6 year olds) nearby. Sign up for one or both sessions!

Schedule for each 2-hour session*

• First ~30 minutes - check in and open play
• 15-20 min - storytime
• 30 min - outdoor activity that builds on story
• Last 45 min - open play and pickup

*Parents must remain onsite during the entire session and consent to Additional Terms and Conditions.

Work from the Park" events in the past have included outdoor and indoor seating for co-working, free high speed WiFi, restrooms + water bottle refill station, free hot and cold brew coffee from 9-11 a.m and other surprises throughout the day! Planning to come without your littles?
