Description: The Geogie M. & Calvin C. Goode Bandshell was built in 1945 and is located in Eastlake Park at 1549 E. Jefferson St. in Phoenix, Az. In 1948 African American activist Claudia Jones spoke from the bandshell to a crowd of 1,000 people at Eastlake Park about equal rights for African Americans. The bandshell is named after African-American Geogie M. Goode, an author, educator and activist. She was the wife of Calvin C. Goode, who served a total of twenty-two years, as a representative to the Phoenix, Arizona City Council. The bandshell is listed in the Phoenix Historic Property Register.
