Your idea

Have an idea for the block party?

Got something you’d love to see? A taco stand, a chess corner, live music, a kids’ craft table? We’d love to hear it. Every suggestion is welcome. And if it’s something you’d like to help run or make happen yourself, even better! A note like “I’d love a ___ at the party, and I’d be glad to take charge of it” is exactly what turns a good idea into a real one.
