Memphis: Overton Park
Overton Park is a large, 342-acre (138 ha) public park in Midtown Memphis. The park grounds contain the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art, Memphis Zoo, a 9-hole golf course, the Memphis College of Art, Rainbow Lake, Veterans Plaza, the Greensward, and other features. The Old Forest Arboretum of Overton Park, one of the few remaining old growth forests in Tennessee, is a natural arboretum with labeled trees along trails.
The property, once known locally as Lea’s Woods, was purchased by Memphis on November 14, 1901, for $110,000; it was located along the city's eastern and northern boundary at that time. Overton Park was designed by landscape architect George Kessler as part of a comprehensive plan that also included Riverside Park (later M.L. King Riverside Park) and the Memphis Parkway System. The planning began in 1901, and Overton Park was established in 1906. The park is named in honor of John Overton, a co-founder of Memphis. Overton’s name was selected in a competition to name the new park conducted by the Evening Scimitar, a local newspaper; the three choices in the voting were Memphis founding fathers Andrew Jackson, Overton, and James Winchester. The official naming occurred on July 25, 1902.
The Brooks Museum is a privately funded, nonprofit art museum located in Overton Park. Founded in 1916, the Brooks Museum is the oldest and largest art museum in the state of Tennessee.
Overton Park also includes the famous Shell theater, where Elvis Presley gave his first paid concert on July 30, 1954.
Memphis College of Art is a small, private college of art and design located in Overton Park. It offers Bachelor of Fine Arts, Master of Fine Arts, Master of Arts in Art Education and Master of Arts in Teaching degrees.
Overton Park Zoo (now named the Memphis Zoo) began in 1906 when a resident of Memphis couldn't keep his pet black bear in his backyard. He had it put in a pen in the park, which attracted many people, inspiring the idea to place more animals on display. The Memphis Zoo is now one of the largest in the United States, attracting 1 million visitors per year. The zoo houses two pandas, who are local celebrities, as well as three polar bears, brought in to the Northwest Passage exhibition which opened in March 2006.
In 2008, the Memphis Zoo was ranked #1 Zoo in the U.S. by TripAdvisor.com. In independent surveys commissioned by TripAdvisor, the Memphis Zoo scored a 90 percent overall satisfaction score, almost 25 percent higher than the national zoo average.
The 9-hole Overton Park Golf Course is located in the southwestern part of Overton Park. It is a 2,222-yard, par 34 courses with 3 sets of teeboxes for different levels of golfing experience. Built in 1926, the Abe Goodman Golf Clubhouse is a Tudor-styled, brick building with a patio.

Ranky Tanky Best Regional Roots Music Album GRAMMY® Nominee
Since their formation, the Charleston five-piece Ranky Tanky have established themselves as global ambassadors for their tight-knit local community, bringing the West African-influenced sounds of the South Carolina Lowcountry around the world - including the TODAY Show stage and the top of the Billboard genre charts. Now, Ranky Tanky will take the next step in that journey, bringing Gullah music to the GRAMMYs for the first time ever with the news that their most recent release Good Time has been nominated for Best Regional Roots Album this year.
Gullah is a centuries-old sound that has been carried down through generations in the Sea Islands of the Southeastern United States, originated by African Americans in coastal South Carolina and Georgia during slavery and faithfully preserved by their descendants up through the present day. In Ranky Tanky's hands, Gullah music has been described as soulful honey to the ears (NPR), and now this essential yet too little known corner of the African American story will finally be represented on Music's Biggest Night.
Watch Ranky Tanky perform their original Gullah song “Freedom” from Good Time on The TODAY Show:
Ranky Tanky’s Charlton Singleton explains the origins of the Gullah community, Gullah music and how the group has boldly kept their West African heritage thriving through generations:
Most recently, Ranky Tanky were the subjects of a 10-page profile in Oxford American as part of an issue dedicated to the musical history of South Carolina. The feature concludes that “Ranky Tanky’s offering to American music history is distinct – it encases the traditional in carefully built, geometric layers of funk that protect us from forgetting this music, no matter where or how we are moved from this land.” Read the profile in full here:
Previously, Ranky Tanky have been praised by NPR for “bringing freshness and uplift to overlooked Americana,” and Garden & Gun have said if Ranky Tanky doesn’t get you moving, you might want to check your heartbeat. Around their 2017 self-titled debut album, Ranky Tanky sat down with Terry Gross on Fresh Air to discuss all things Gullah. Listen to that informative interview here:
Ranky Tanky will continue to tour Good Time into 2020, including a late January run through Southern California, and a much anticipated hometown show with the Charleston Symphony Orchestra on March 12.
