“An Evening in the Greenhouse” will be Thursday, December 5, from 5:30-7:30 p.m. Hosted by the South Knoxville Neighborhood and Business Coalition and Stanley’s Greenhouse to support the Legacy Parks’ SoKno Art Walk project.
Guests will enjoy a “Taste of South Knoxville” with hors d’oeuvres from South Knox restaurants and beer and wine. Mingling among the beautiful poinsettias will brighten your holiday spirit! Tickets are $50 each and include two drink tickets. Additional drink tickets can be purchased for $5 each. Buy tickets here.
Adding to the more than 50 miles of trails in South Knoxville, Legacy Parks is creating a 1.5-mile trail along a rail line in the heart of South Knoxville’s business district stretching from Chapman Highway to Island Home neighborhood.
This cultural art trail will celebrate the art, history and natural beauty of our community. Specially commissioned art pieces will create a unique destination that both showcases the exceptional artists in Knoxville while integrating art, nature and recreation into an accessible experience for all.
Legacy Parks initiated Knoxville’s Urban Wilderness in 2008 – now a regional destination contributing an annual local economic impact of $14.6 million, according to a report from the Baker Jr. Center for Public Policy.
Work on the art walk will begin when all funds are raised. Donate here.
Carol Evans is executive director of Legacy Parks Foundation
