Armstrong Park Cultural District

Since the land for Armstrong Park in Duncanville, Texas, was first acquired in 1971, the site of the former Air Force Station has been the epicenter for connection and celebration for our entire community for over fifty years. Generations of residents have gathered in Armstrong Park to enjoy festivals, parades, concerts, live theater, art exhibitions, outdoor films, markets, literary events, community gardens, and wide green spaces.

This scenic, rolling 21-acre park and cultural district was once home to the nation’s largest all-volunteer-built wooden playground and features meandering pedestrian paths that connect visitors to nearby landmarks, civic buildings, historic sites, public art, pop-up galleries, family recreation, and arts-focused spaces.

Just outside the boundaries of Armstrong Park, new connections are linking visitors to surrounding areas in imaginative ways through cultural corridors to nearby neighborhoods, schools, businesses, restaurants, community theater, and the Downtown Duncanville District.
