Poppies to the Park is a community art project to commemorate our veterans. Thousands of knitted and crocheted poppies made by members of local and global communities will create garlands to be installed on the Bicentennial Bridge in Jefferson City’s Deborah Cooper Park on Adrian’s Island.
Poppies will be installed in time for Veterans Day on November 11, 2024, and remain in place for viewing through Thanksgiving. We will continue to collect poppies Year-round. October 31 is the deadline so donations can be made into garland each year.
Poppies to the Park is made possible by Jefferson City Rotary Clubs with support from JC Parks, Missouri River Regional Library, and community members like you!
