Catfish Row Art Park

A small art park in the old riverfront district, with installations, fountains, and river-view platforms that showcase Mississippi Delta culture.

Catfish Row was the old name of Vicksburg's wharf district, which gained fame through the riverbank life depicted by writers including Faulkner. The park's theme is the music, food, and folk art of the Mississippi Delta. It has sculptures, ground murals, a children's splash fountain, and platforms overlooking the Mississippi River. Small events and markets are often held on weekends. Admission is free. The park is not large, so it is a good place to sit, rest, and photograph the river after viewing the riverfront murals.
