Grandin Village Annual Block Party: Sunday, May 20th 2pm-4:30pm

Save the Date!

Sunday, May 20th
Annual Grandin Village Block Party
2 pm - 4:30pm

Meet your neighbors and enjoy family fun free events throughout the day!
 

Grandin Road will be closed to traffic between Memorial Avenue and Westover Avenue to allow for the street faire.  This annual gathering provides an opportunity for neighbors to meet and enjoy free family fun, music and activities.

Please join us for an afternoon filled with food and friends. Events include live entertainment, children’s activities, and the annual favorite – free hotdogs donated by Valleydale and dessert made by the Raleigh Court Health and Rehabiliation Center bakers! 

For kids, there will be the Jimmy Sardines Moon Bounce and face painting by Grandin Village artist Katherine Devine.  They can climb on a real fire truck from Fire Station #7, create their own sidewalk art and twist ‘n shout with a Hula Hoop.  A juggler and magician will keep children of all ages entertained.  Kids are encouraged to decorate and ride their bikes.  They can display them in the alleyway next to the Roanoke Natural Foods Co-op.

 This annual event is part of Roanoke City’s Neighborhood Month, a celebration of unity and neighborhood pride. During the month of May, neighborhood groups sponsor events to come together as one community and celebrate our neighborhoods.
