Hosting a Block Party
A block party is a great way to meet and get to
know your neighbors to foster a more connected
and resilient neighborhood — whether your
neighbors are on your block, in your building or
down the road. Block parties provide the perfect
occasion to celebrate community, culture and
build a community where people help each other
and tackle challenges together.
Organizing an Event
A great neighborhood event provides an
opportunity to build community connections,
raise awareness or work together to create a
safer, stronger and more resilient community.
There are many kinds of events, like clean up days
where volunteers pitch in, workshops where
community members can learn new skills, game
or movie nights for fun and cultural celebrations.
This module covers the basic steps to organize an
event that will apply to most of the event modules
throughout these guides. Use it as a reference
and planning tool for all your events.
