This was an excellent tour of public art in Jacksonville! I took a guest visiting me on this tour and I was amazed at what I’d never seen before! I’m so proud of the city and the nonprofits investing in making the city more interesting!

Tony was an excellent tour guide - VERY knowledgeable. We also appreciate the company accommodating us at noon instead of our original 2PM reservation!
