Please join us in congratulating Randy, our Park Operations Ambassador, whose artwork has been selected for display at the Downtown Jacksonville Library alongside works from city affiliates.

For Randy, art extends far beyond the sketches on a page. It can be seen throughout James Weldon Johnson Park, from the vibrant greenery to the beautifully maintained flower beds.

Randy brings his artistic vision and passion for beautification to every corner of the park.

We are incredibly proud of Randy and his creative achievements. Be sure to experience his artistry both in the park and at the Downtown Jacksonville Library exhibit once it is on display.
