Poppies to the Park

About this event

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, 2025, and remain in place for viewing through Thanksgiving. 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! For more information on how to participate or view the poppies please visit our website: https://www.jcparks.com/event/poppies-to-the-park/ Comments and inquiries can be directed to JC Parks staff Leann Porrello, lporrello@jeffersoncitymo.gov.
