Join us on Saturday, July 23rd for Connections for the Homeless' first Block Party in Evanston's 5th Ward!
We're looking forward to celebrating our neighbors who have supported Connections for the last 37 years.
The Block Party consists of two events: Family Fest and After Dark. ​

Family Fest

Spend the afternoon with us! At Foster Field, located at Simpson St. and Ashland Ave., Connections will host family-friendly entertainment and activities for all ages.

Throughout the afternoon, you'll enjoy DJ entertainment, a gospel brunch, garden tours, face painting, balloon animals, BBQ, inflatables, games, and more. Full entertainment lineup coming soon. 

No registration or tickets are required.
