About this Event
Explore one of Jacksonville's most historic Black neighborhoods, Durkeeville. It is the epicenter of the city's baseball history and the launching pad for Black culture in Jacksonville's NW side.
Participants will eat, shop and explore while hiking through this urban landscape. Food will be provided and some Northside souvenirs.
Points of interest include:
- S-Line of the Emerald Trail
- Tour of Hank Aaron Field at J.P. Small Stadium
- Lunch at Durkeeville & Co.
- Remembering Walker's Commercial and Vocational College
- New Stanton
- Remembering Ducote Bank
- Civil Rights History at Mt. Ararat Baptist Church
Proceeds from ticket sales support local Black business owners on Jacksonville's Northside and the Production Fund for Moncrief Springs, the documentary. We believe in the economic empowerment of Black business owners and Black creatives.
