Join In The Commemoration

Go back in time as you take a walk through the history of Jacksonville and Northeast Florida. The exhibit begins with a look into the life of the Timuquans. Many of their artifacts are featured here, including but not limited to their pottery, arrowheads and spearheads, paint pots, beads and knives. Next, travel to a Spanish colony and visit a replica of an old Spanish church. Some of the Spanish artifacts include real coins and parts of the Spanish ships like pulleys and cargo hooks. Another part of the exhibit explores Civil Rights and Black Heritage. Norman Film Studios is also mentioned, the company that, from 1920-1928, used all black cast and crew and featured African Americans in heroic roles that broke away from the stereotype-cast roles of the time. From our earliest settlers over 12,000 years ago to modern day events, visitors will learn how this area of land we call Jacksonville became the city it is today! Read Less
