Join us for a cozy community gathering nestled in the heart of our neighborhood! Come unwind and connect with friends, neighbors, and allies at our intimate family picnic in the park. Bring your own snacks, blankets, and smiles as we spend a leisurely day enjoying each other’s company.

While the park boasts a delightful playground for the little ones to frolic, please note that grilling facilities are not available on-site. However, fear not! Just across the street, KAFN Coffee awaits, ready to serve up delicious brews to complement our laid-back picnic vibes.

Let’s make memories together in the sunshine, surrounded by the warmth of friendship and the simple joys of community. We can’t wait to see you there!
