Changes in Alcohol Policies May Have an Adverse Effect on Park Users

On May 21, 2023

 

Griffith Park is a unique resource that welcomes folks from across the LA community (and beyond) to safely enjoy picnic areas, the Observatory, roadways, over 50 miles of hiking trails and the peace of the natural world.

FoGP recently became aware of potential changes to alcohol use in Griffith Park and allowing for more big non-public events; we are concerned about how this possible new policy could impact the current user groups, and affect the Parkland.

To understand FoGP position, you can access our letter to the Park Commissioners here.
