Today, some of the lots on Jefferson Street will convert to paid lots during the day time. Listen, we get it. Paid parking doesn’t seem like a good thing. But we have FIVE reasons to feel pretty positive about this change. 🚗🚕🚙 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 1. These changes are needed because more and more people are coming Downtown - which is pretty awesome. 🎉👏🏽 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 2. All Downtown lots are still free at night. Going out to dinner? Free parking. Getting a drink with friends? Free parking. You get the point. 🍔🍺⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 3. There is still PLENTY of free daytime parking in Downtown. All street parking is free, and there are still some free lots on Jefferson, including the Canal Lot and the Jefferson St Lots. (And also the unspoken railroad parking that we certainly do not condone but secretly celebrate)💵 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 4. Paid parking in Lynchburg is CHEAP. Only $0.25 for the first hour and $1 after that, with a $5 max for the whole day.🤘🏽 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 5. You can pay online. Download the Passport Parking app and pay on the fly. 📱⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀ So that’s the deal. As more and more people come to downtown, there will always be challenges and change. But what a great problem to have. We’ll take it! #downtownlynchburg #citylife
Today marks the beginning of Black History Month and First Fridays Lynchburg some amazing works by African American Artists. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Be sure to stop in to Academy Center of the Arts to view an assortment of acrylic paintings by Christina Davis (pictured) in the Up Front Gallery. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Then head to Riverviews Artspace to experience the Emerging Artist Series featuring Veronica Jackson: The Burden of Invisibility. “This series investigates how Black women see, don’t see, value, or devalue themselves in visual culture, and how these attitudes affect their sense of agency in constructing their own imagery or being susceptible to the images that already exist,” says Jackson. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ @attheacademy @riverviews_artspace #fflyh #downtownlynchburg #ourlynchburg #blackhistorymonth
