An urban oasis with deep roots and a beautiful future.

Reclaimed from the shadows of racial segregation, Belmont Beach is a riverside park created by and for the people of Haughville and the Near Westside.

A serene stretch of land along the banks of the White River, Belmont Beach is a mirror reflecting our history and a testament to the resilience of the Black community in Indianapolis.

In 2020, a group of Haughville residents began the work of reclaiming Belmont Beach. See how their efforts are creating a new center of community, connection, and celebration.

From gardening workshops and meditation classes to nature hikes and live performances, there’s always something happening at Belmont Beach.
