YOU CAN PLAY A PART IN THE WALKER PERCY SERENITY CIRCLE




WALKER PERCY PAVER DRIVE IS GOING FULL FORCE

It's not just a brick.
It's a memory.
It's a part of history.
It's a gift to the community.
It's a celebration of the many gifts Walker Percy gave to the
 St. Tammany Northshore.

In having a brick engraved on the Walker Percy Serenity Circle, you can create a lasting tribute to those who have played an important part in your own personal history.


  • Loved ones - living or deceased
  • Teachers, schools, and churches
  • Business establishments
  • Mentors
  • Authors, Artists, Musicians
Your memorial brick will be a permanent and cherished keepsake to pass down and be viewed by generations yet to come.

The sizes of the bricks and their prices are as follows:

12 x 12 inches                                $ 250.00
6 x 12 inches                                  $ 175.00
6 x 6 inches                                    $ 125.00

Benches are also available, and donations will be accepted for the sculpture by Bill Binnings of Walker sitting on a bench with his dog, Sweet Think, under an oak tree in the serene settings.



We are accepting donations also to build a collection of his works and writings about him for the Walker Percy Room in the St. Tammany Library in Madisonville.
