Step back in time and enjoy Glen Echo Park, a unique arts and cultural center in the tiny township of Glen Echo, Maryland, a suburb of Washington, DC.  with a population of approximately 250. Located about 9 miles northwest of the DC downtown area, the park’s site was initially developed in 1891 as a National Chautauqua  Assembly.

Following the sale of the Chautauqua grounds in 1903, leisure facilities were developed and in 1911, the site was expanded to become the privately owned Glen Echo Amusement Park, a popular facility that operated until 1968.  Many locals still remember riding the trolley from DC to the Park to swim in the former Crystal Pool or ride the roller coaster. The National Park Service (NPS) now operates the park, which serves the Washington area as a regional cultural resource when offering classes, workshops and performances in the visual and performing arts. The park is known for its Streamline Moderne Art Deco architecture, an antique Dentzel Carousel,  and its historic Spanish Ballroom, as well as for its children’s theater and social dance programs. Visitors also come to the park to participate in its festivals and events, which include the Washington Folk Festival and a Family Day.

The NPS maintains a visitors center and conducts park history tours. More than 350,000 people attend events and participate in instructional activities at the park during each year.[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]About the area
