Work on the latest public art piece has begun on the south and west facades of the Water Street Garage. A layered composition of luminous silver lines, colored tendrils, and musical notes - it will encompass iconic musical compositions including James Weldon Johnson and Rosamond Johnson’s poetic “Lift Every Voice and Sing” and Courtney Bryan’s contemporary symphonic piece “Bridges,” paying homage to the rich musical history of nearby LaVilla and the modern-day Jacksonville Symphony, connecting Jacksonville’s past, present and future. | |

We are very excited about the growing online directory of Northeast Florida artists and organizations. As many are still experiencing economic hardship, we have decided to extend the free Enhanced listing through July 15th. This is a great resource to find and be found, and we want it to be accessible to as many people in the arts industry in our region, as possible.
The newly formed Arts Directory is a searchable database for individual artists and arts & culture organizations. Professional artists in the five county area are welcome to join the growing list of North Florida creatives.
Basic listing is always free.
We are extending the free enhanced listing through July 15, 2020
