Rodney Cook Sr. Park in Historic Vine City
Joseph E. Boone Boulevard at Vine Street, Atlanta, GA

This summer marked the first year anniversary of Rodney Cook Park in Historic Vine City. HydroCartography celebrates the community’s embrace of this new asset for the neighborhood through story sharing and movement. Cook Park is now an important part of the Proctor Creek Watershed which flows into the Chattahoochee River. The park helps to filter contaminants and debris from flowing into the Chattahoochee, which is the primary resource for water for not only the metro Atlanta area, but also many communities downstream of us. We dance in Cook Park to draw attention to the urgent need to protect this vital resource for us all.
This program is supported in part by the City of Atlanta Mayor’s Office of Cultural Affairs,
and by Georgia Council for the Arts through the appropriations of the Georgia
General Assembly. Georgia Council for the Arts also receives support from its partner agency –
the National Endowment for the Arts
