Food trucks and a special #LiveAtLunch musical performance by Joe Watts in honor of James Weldon Johnson’s Birthday at Charlie’s Café in James Weldon Johnson Park during lunchtime [11am – 2pm]
“I moved to Jacksonville a year ago and have never felt so much community as I did here, tonight.”
“Great event for all of Jax. Love seeing families out and kids having a good time.”
“Thanks for being an amazing host! The park is beautiful and a part of Jacksonville’s history. Your staff was stellar!”
“There is so much good happening in that park. The programming – kudos to you. It just looks like a different park these days, doesn’t it? It looks totally different than it used to.”
“It’s a nice jewel to sit & enjoy the trees. You can eat, listen to live music & attend weekend events.”
“This event has a real roots, authentic feel. I felt inspired.”
“Wow, the park sure looks better than when I was in office!”
