One of the highlights of the day is the Bernheim Forest’s Children at Play Network (CAPN) pop-up play space. This area will be equipped with natural loose parts, allowing children to build forts, create their own games, and enjoy the wonders of free play. Play Facilitators from both the community and Bernheim Forest will be present to support and guide children in their creative pursuits. Additionally, this event provides practical experience for those who participated in the Free Play Facilitator Training, helping them to achieve CAPN certification. Redline Performing Arts, in partnership with Actors Theatre of Louisville, will
present the world premiere of “Who Killed Alberta Jones?” from 6 pm-7 pm. This original drama, written by playwright Larry Muhammad, delves into the extraordinary life and tragic death of Alberta Jones, a pioneering Louisville attorney and civil rights
advocate. The performance is set to be a powerful and moving tribute to her legacy.
Whether you’re looking for a fun day out with the family, interested in community initiatives, or eager to experience local art and culture, Alberta O. Jones Park Day has something for everyone.
