East Spruce Street Block Party

About This Grant

The Eritrean Community will host a neighborhood block party on Tuesday, August 28th from 4:00pm-9:00pm. The celebration will take place on two blocks surrounding the Community Center: E. Spruce between 24th and 25th Avenue, and on 24th Avenue between E. Spruce and E. Alder streets. The event will include Eritrean and American food, fun activities for kids, entertainment including the Eritrean Dance Group and NW Tap Connection, a DJ, face painting and henna artists, and much more. The primary goal of the event is to create a stronger, more connected neighborhood and to begin a discussion among community members on potential improvements to the Center.
