SUMMARY:Sunday in the Park: Bringing History to Life
DESCRIPTION:Sunday in the Park: Bringing History to Life \nBack before cities built public parks\, average people would bring a picnic basket and some musical instruments (and maybe a few adult libations) to the local cemetery and revere the dead by celebrating life in what was often one of the only patches of public space in town. Oakland Cemetery’s annual Sunday in the Park event\, now in its 40th year\, hails from this tradition. \nVisitors can enjoy living history theatre performances\, tours\, an artists’ market\, food trucks\, live music\, storytelling\, crafts for kids\, and a historical costume contest as they explore how the cemetery\, surrounding neighborhoods\, and the city have changed over time and celebrate the local communities that make Oakland what it is today. \nThis event is supported by a grant from Georgia Humanities.
