Visit Jubilee Park: Community Programs, Assistance, Park Hours & Directions

For broader recreation-focused activities rather than Jubilee’s education-oriented services, our community recreation center guide explains how to check classes, activity schedules, fees and registration requirements at municipal centers.
Food Pantry & Emergency Assistance
Jubilee Park operates a food pantry serving families experiencing food insecurity. The food pantry is a separate service location, so visitors should not automatically travel to the main office at 917 Bank Street.
For October 2026, Jubilee’s calendar identifies appointment-required pantry sessions including October 24 from 9 AM–3 PM and October 28 from 9 AM–6 PM. These are examples of published event dates, not permanent weekly pantry hours.
How to Request Pantry Help
- Call 214-887-1364, extension 247, or review the current food pantry calendar.
- Explain your household situation and ask whether appointments are available.
- Confirm whether there are ZIP-code, residency, household-size or other eligibility requirements.
- Ask which documents, if any, must be brought to the appointment.
- Verify your appointment time and the 4603 Gurley Avenue location.
- Attend the confirmed session and follow pantry staff instructions.
Emergency financial assistance for rent, mortgage or utilities is a different service from the pantry. Ask the Opportunity team about available funding, qualifying households, required documents and application procedures.
