Historic Interest
Originally the homesite of slain civil rights activists Harry T. & Harriette V. Moore, the park features the
Harry T. & Harriette V. Moore Cultural Center. The 11.93-acre community park honors
the Moores who were parents,
educators, and leaders in the civil rights movement both locally and nationally.
The Moores were murdered for their involvement in the civil
rights movement when a bomb exploded under their home on Christmas
night in 1951.
The park is dedicated to the celebration of their lives, to
promoting awareness of their contributions to the early civil
rights movement, and to preserving African American history.
Located on the property of the original Moore family home
site, the 5,000 sq. ft. Cultural Center opened April
9, 2004. Programs
include visual, literary and performing arts, museum and
outreach exhibits. Donations or loans of memorabilia
and artifacts for
museum exhibits are welcomed.
The center is also a meeting
place for community organizations. The conference center
has surround sound with a backlit screen. The library
offers visitor
access to reference materials relating to people of African
descent. Landscaped with indigenous trees and foliage and
shaded by large oaks, the park is ideal for concerts,
games, and other
outdoor activities.
Funded through
the State of Florida, the Brevard County Board of County Commissioners,
and the North Brevard Parks Referendum,
funding for continued development is being pursued by the
nonprofit corporation, Harry T. & Harriette V. Moore
Cultural Complex, Inc. Plans include a replica of the destroyed
