NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Get out and get active! That’s the goal for Sunday's Open Streets Nashville event in South Nashville on Antioch Pike. It’s an effort to walk, bike, skate, and dance in an area that’s typically occupied. Antioch Pike will be shut down from noon to 5 p.m. from Wright Middle to Glencliff Elementary.
Open Streets Nashville temporarily closes streets to cars, encouraging community connection, physical activity, and support for local businesses. There will be a Community Zone, an Arts and Culture Zone, and an Activity Zone along the route.
Families can also tour the nearby Glencliff Elementary gardens, have a poem written by local poets, enjoy a Titans tailgate, and connect with neighbors in the streets.
Open Streets is brought to the community by Mayor Freddie O’Connell, NDOT, and Amazon.

The Jefferson Street Sound Museum is a great little gem in North Nashville. The founder and curator turned his home into a museum to keep the legacy of historic Jefferson street alive. Now, it's been named a stop on the U.S. Civil Rights Trail. Aaron Cantrell takes us inside.
