In the hub of downtown sits Lithia Park, Ashland's crown jewel. Lithia is a 93-acre vista of emerald lawns, tennis courts, a sand-pit volleyball court, picnic area, colorful landscaping and playground equipment. The park follows Ashland Creek through undeveloped woodlands, and also includes a Japanese garden, two duck ponds, a formal rose garden, groves of sycamore trees and a number of secluded spots. In the summer months, enjoy free performances including Ballet in the Park, band concerts and a variety of other cultural offerings. Lithia Park's History. . . Ashland began in the 1800's as a water-powered sawmill and a flour mill standing on the banks of Ashland Creek. The mill occupied what is now the entrance to Lithia Park. The plaza was a popular meeting spot, where settlers would hitch their horses, trade wheat for flour or purchase lumber. Early settlers had ties to Ashland County, Ohio and Ashland, Kentucky, hence the town's name. It became official in 1855 with the opening of the Ashland Mills Post Office. By 1859 the city had 50 people. Hotels, schools, churches and mills sprang up and during the 1870's and 1880's. Ashland grew faster than any town south of Portland. By 1900 there were 3,000 people in Ashland, the largest town in Jackson County at the time. In the early1900's, water rich in lithium-now known as Lithia water-bubbled from the town's fountains. With the help of the Women's Civic Improvement Club, a park system was developed, including Lithia Park. The park began with eight acres in 1892 by the Chautauqua Association to bring entertainment and culture to southern Oregon. They built a domed building for their shows, the walls of which now surround the Oregon Shakespeare Festival's Elizabethan Theater. The Oregon Shakespeare Festival began in 1935 with a three-day summer festival of Shakespearean plays under founding director Angus Bowmer. Visitors came from miles around over the next thirty summers to participate in the various attractions offered, and to camp in what was to become Lithia Park.
