Friends of Hemming Park and partners including the Cultural Council of Greater Jacksonville, MOCA Jacksonville, The Cummer Museum of Art & Gardens, Jacksonville Public Library, Jacksonville Transportation Authority (JTA), Art Republic, and the University of North Florida present an entire week of activities to showcase public art in Northeast Florida. We’ll celebrate the opening of our new Laura Street Sculpture Garden; host hands-on arts activities all week; provide public art tours; and close out the week with a community celebration featuring an artists’ market and a free concert by local performers Let’s Ride Brass Band and Spice and the Po Boys and New Orleans-based headliner Flow Tribe.
