The Parish of Caddo Parks and Recreation Department and the Shreveport Regional Arts Council announce the launch of Spring, Summer and Fall Programming in Caddo Common Park…Shreveport’s first programmable greenspace located in the heart of Shreveport Common on the western edge of downtown. Caddo Common Park programing is sponsored by Ochsner LSU Health Shreveport and combines a healthy dose of exercise, wellness education and fitness opportunities with dynamic, diverse Arts Programming.  All programs and activities are free of charge and are designed for multi-generational audiences.

Caddo Common Park programming launches on Sunday, April 25th from 2:00 pm – 6:00 pm with “SUNDAY IN THE PARK.” Featured artists include Chessi May leading YOGA, Hands-On Art Activity with Jerry Davenport, Plein Air Painting with Bonnie Kirkley demonstrating watercolor techniques, and performances by HARK!, Songbook South, “Little Mermaid” by StageCenter Theatre Company, and an AMP concert produced by Chris Chandler of the American Millennium Project featuring The Joanitones. A special edition to “SUNDAYS IN THE PARK” is the addition of the area Arts Organization and Shreveport Common Social Service Organizations who are participating in Give for Good, the online giving program through the Community Foundation of North Louisiana.  Visitors may meet the staff and learn about the programming of these organizations who are registered for Give for Good.  There will also be Food Trucks and a small Arts Market.
