Richard and Annette Bloch Cancer Survivors Park is a two-acre park in East Memphis' Audubon Park, located adjacent to the park's Theater Memphis and Botanic Garden. The park was originally established by the R.A. Bloch Cancer Foundation as one of more than two dozen similar parks throughout the United States honoring those who have survived battles with various types of cancer.
Several elements in the park are shared with all similar parks throughout the country, including a sculpture series by Mexican sculptor Victor Salmones depicting the stages of cancer recovery. Inspirational quotes for cancer survivors are engraved throughout the park's Positive Mental Attitude Walk, while cancer information and medical step instructions are showcased as part of the Road to Recovery. Wildflower plantings are meant to attract butterfly species, while a labyrinth garden offers opportunities for strolling and contemplation.
