About SCENIC JACKSONVILLE INC

Scenic Jacksonville, Inc. is a local 501(c)(3) advocacy organization focused on protecting and enhancing Jacksonville’s scenic character—both natural landscapes and the built environment. The organization traces its roots to long-running local civic activism and formally consolidated its work through a 2019 merger to strengthen advocacy and public programming.

Scenic Jacksonville advances its mission through policy advocacy, public education, coalition-building (including the Riverfront Parks Now coalition), and public events such as the annual Great Cities Symposium. In the past two years the organization has been active in city planning and public-space discussions, announced leadership transition plans, and increased public engagement through large public programs and partnerships with local environmental and civic groups.
