View Ridge Party in the Park-2024

About This Grant

The View Ridge Party in the Park is the neighborhood's community building event. The goal is to bring the neighborhood together with a shared experience. The event will take place on Sunday September 8th in View Ridge Park (the center of the neighborhood). Activities are designed to promote a sense of community and connection among residents. We provide activities that appeal to everyone and also to specific age groups. Participants includes various organizations that support the neighborhood promoting positive community relations (e.g. Seattle Public Library, Seattle Fire, Seattle Police, Seattle Humane, NE Seattle Together (NEST), View Ridge School PTA, City Council Member). Food donated by local businesses is also served by neighborhood volunteers. Musical performances, arts and crafts for kids, face painting, balloon making, and historical displays of the neighborhood are examples of our use of arts and culture to connect and celebrate community.
