Falls Park in downtown Greenville is turning 20 years old.
The 32-acre park serves as a symbol of Greenville, offering residents and visitors alike views of the Reedy River Falls and the iconic Liberty Bridge.
A celebration event for the park will be held Sept. 8 starting at 2:30 p.m. Greenville City Mayor Knox White will offer opening remarks, followed by additional speakers including Miguel Rosales, the architect of Liberty Bridge, and Sallie Perrin White, president of the Carolina Foothills Garden Club.
The public is invited to pack a picnic or purchase food at the available food trucks available. The event will include activities and live performances by the South Carolina Governor’s School for Arts and Humanities and the Upstate Shakespeare Festival.
