Adults ages 55+ are invited to a planned walk from the Garfield Park Branch using trails throughout the park and nearby neighborhoods. These twice monthly walks will last approximately 45 minutes. A signed Liability Waiver will be required.
For more information, please visit Garfield Park Library or call 317-275-4490. In the event of inclement weather, we will meet at the Burrello Family Center, 2345 Pagoda Drive, Indianapolis, IN 46203, to walk laps in the gymnasium.
What was known as the Shelby Branch began in 1918 when the library was housed in old School No. 34. A new branch was constructed in 1965 at the current Shelby Street location. Following a major renovation, the branch reopened in 2011 as the Garfield Park Branch, reflecting the desire of residents to refer to the branch by their beloved and adjacent Garfield Park.
