Mission Statement
Centennial Park Conservancy’s mission is to preserve, enhance, and share the Parthenon and Centennial Park so that all future generations may benefit from these enriching cultural and educational landmarks.
This year we are celebrating the 125th anniversary of the Tennessee Centennial Exposition, originally held to celebrate one hundred years of Tennessee’s statehood and which led to the creation of Centennial Park and the Parthenon.
The 1897 Exposition brought together thousands of residents and visitors to celebrate the centennial of our state and to see all that Tennessee has to offer. In this tradition, we are hosting free community programming for the whole family throughout the year including the Nashville Earth Day Festival (April), the Musicians Corner concert series (May, June, September, October), the Parthenon museum, and through the Kidsville program at these great events and at the Parthenon museum.
Please join us in giving to these valuable programs, Centennial Park’s thriving green space, and the Nashville Parthenon.
