Parking in JMU Lot R5 is strongly encouraged. Although sign says JMU Permit Required, this is for JMU STUDENTS AND STAFF Click here for directions
We have limited parking in two small, in-grounds parking lots, one lot at the Frances Plecker Education Center, 780 University Blvd, and another close to our Pavilion. Both lots are accessible through stone-column, wrought-iron gated entry drives on University Blvd. between Carrier Dr. and Driver Dr., without a JMU Parking Permit (permit) and open from dawn till dusk.
Occasional Arboretum event parking on University Blvd. east side, above the Arboretum large lawn, is available when 'No Parking' signs replaced by 'EJC Arboretum Event Parking' signs.
The Arboretum and all Arboretum parking lots close at dusk daily.
