ABOUT JANE’S WALK

Jane’s Walk is a global festival of free, volunteer-led walking conversations inspired by community activist Jane Jacobs. Jane’s Walks combine the simple act of exploring a place with personal observations, local history, and civic engagement.  

The annual Jane’s Walk festival takes place the first weekend in May, in more than 200 cities and towns around the globe. In 2024, it will be held in Maine on Saturday, May 4.

LEAD A WALK

Anyone is welcome to lead a Jane’s Walk. Whether you are affiliated with an organization or an impassioned individual, Jane’s Walk is an opportunity to share your knowledge and experience with your community. 

ENROLL IN TRAINING

There will be a virtual information session for prospective Walk Leaders on Friday, February 23 at noon.
