The Bill “Bojangles” Robinson Project

After an enormous amount of work by the committee, the unselfish cooperation of many individuals, organizations, local companies and the City of Richmond, Virginia Government, the project was ready for dedication on June 30, 1973.

It is significant to note while our Richmond City has long enjoyed fame as the city of many statues, the Bill “Bojangles” Robinson statue was the first statue memorializing a prominent African American.

The Bill “Bojangles” Robinson project is indeed symbolic of the spirit of The Astoria Beneficial Club, Inc., celebrating a rich past, while making a difference in the future.

It is hoped that in the years to come, residents and tourists alike will visit Robinson Square and the Bill “Bojangles” Robinson statue will be a cause of reflection and inspire civil pride, civil commitment, and participations in each neighborhood civics’ life.
