Upgrades of the Sterchi Farm trailhead at the South Chickamauga Creek Greenway are underway, with the city’s first environmental art project scheduled to open along the trail in the coming weeks.

The project was completed by Portland-based artist Adam Kuby and offers users an object field that capitalizes on the area’s natural environment. The project will be unveiled and opened to the public at an April 28 event at the trailhead.

“The South Chickamauga Creek Greenway is one of the most vital elements in a growing network of trails and paths in our city,” according to a statement from Chattanooga Mayor Andy Berke. “The new project at Sterchi Farm will enhance the experience for everyone and is another terrific example of how public art and public land can work together to create a safer, stronger and healthier Chattanooga.”

The event is billed as a celebration of the opening of the artwork and adventure trail, where attendees can cycle, kayak, stand-up paddleboard, explore and play. The new adventure section is directly off the multi-use path near the Sterchi Farm trailhead and features several ramps users can walk, climb, ride or run across.
