The Grass is Greener in January

It's January, and look how green!

It's not just the amphitheatre and riverwalk, either.

Green grass is everywhere, even alongside our roads.

Several inches of rain and warmth in December

lulled us into a springlike winter, which surely will leave us soon!

Concert at the Amphitheatre

Selma's long-awaited Riverfront Park Amphitheatre is here!

It opened Labor Day weekend, then served as the venue for a Saturday night

concert in celebration of Morgan Academy's 50th anniversary.

Renovated from an old warehouse, it is a beautiful addition

to the downtown riverfront.

Up with the Roof

The amphitheatre is shaping up!

Roofs are in place with construction of the stage section under way.

Soon it will look a lot more like the architectural drawing.

WELCOME!

Selma is among the oldest cities in Alabama and has the largest contiguous historic district. It is known for its Civil War and Civil Rights history. The Battle of Selma was one of the last fought in the War Between the States, and the town was a center for the Voting Rights Movement in the 1960s. Today, with a population of about 20,000, Selma is the largest town in the western Black Belt region. The Black Belt, named for the color of its soil, stretches across Central Alabama from Mississippi to Georgia.
