Simbha Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I didn't see this anywhere else, so here goes... A new folk-art inspired greenspace called Smither Park is being planned for the 1/2 acre lot adjacent to the Orange Show. The park's development is being sponsored by the Orange Show in memory of John H. Smither. The design is by Dan Phillips (although I can't tell if he's doing the overall park layout or just the pieces within the park). Here's the website: http://smitherpark.org/Smither_Park_Website/Welcome.html ... and a rendering (found on the site): http://smitherpark.org/Smither_Park_Website/Welcome_files/shapeimage_1.png 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobruss Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 Our group Lindale played at Smithers park this year and had a great time. If you haven't been to the orange show and Smithers park in a while, your in for a treat. The pavilion that we played in is a large tiled bowl. It's really beautiful. The whole park is a tribute to broken tile mosaics and they are amazing! I highly recommend a visit for those who have never been there. Its just off the Gulf Freeway on the feeder before the Telephone rd. exit on Munger. They will have a concert series in the fall. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
