The second “Party in the Park! A Community Resource Fair” will take place Saturday, Sept. 7 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. It will be at Massachusetts Ave. Park.
Party in the Park is a free resource fair to bring together over 40 local organizations who will be ready to connect you to a wide range of vital services and programming.
The event will also feature a free backpack giveaway with plenty of school supplies, free home weatherization kits, free food, live music and cultural performances, activities, games, face-painting, crafts and fun for all ages! No registration is necessary, but children must be present to claim a backpack.
