Ten years ago, when Project Backboard first worked with renowned artist Nina Chanel Abney
no one had commissioned artwork for public outdoor basketball courts before. A decade later,
we came together again at Chickasaw Heritage Park to celebrate that milestone in style,
including a new work of art, full court repair and resurfacing, and two brand new goal systems
courtesy of Goalrilla sports.Located on a bluff above the Mississippi River in the historic French Fort neighborhood, the
renovated basketball court at Chickasaw Heritage Park is a major new work of public art in the
City of Memphis, the only public basketball court in this community and, with Tom Lee Park,
just the second court in Memphis River Parks.
