Our #DTJax Gala: Feeling Ritzy is 2 WEEKS AWAY! Proceeds from the Gala benefit the Lively and Beautiful Sidewalks (LABS) placemaking initiative to turn passive spaces into active public places. One of our favorite projects from LABS is the outdoor gym at Corkscrew Park! 🏋️ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In 2018, @jaxparkscoj created Downtown’s first public gym on the Northbank Riverwalk under the Acosta Bridge by adding sculptural workout equipment, astroturf and landscaping. To activate the space, our Downtown Ambassadors staff The Corkscrew five days a week, partnering with the City on needed maintenance and repairs, providing Safety, Hospitality and Cleaning services, and managing moveable seating and work out equipment such as yoga mats, jump ropes, dumbbells, to make it a destination for people exercising on the Riverwalk. 😁 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Gala Info: 2/28 at 6:30PM at One Enterprise Center. 1920's Theme, glam encouraged! Get tickets at more info @ dtjaxgala.com

On this day in 1900, “Lift Ev’ry Voice and Sing” was sung for the first time in historic Lavilla, Jacksonville. Written by James Weldon Johnson and J. Rosamond Johnson, this song is widely recognized as the “black national anthem.” ❤️ Learn more about this historic moment by reading the @thejaxsonmag's article! Visit The Ritz Theatre and Museum tonight at 6 p.m. to celebrate the 120th Anniversary! Amazing public artwork commemorating this historic song by @cmykaren. #dtjax #jaxhistory #ilovejax
