Celebrating Our City, All Year!

A community engagement post

It takes a village to put on a Festival each year, and we couldn't be more grateful to our local friends and community partners who help us create great art and tackle big ideas each and every day. As the proverb goes, "if you want to go far, go together"— we can't wait to see where we will go!

In our down time, Festival staff get to enjoy tons of amazing things going on in our community. Our Louise Endel Community Engagement Manager Sarah Sherban, shares a few things you can enjoy!

August 20-21

We are truly a city of festivals, and if you're around this weekend check out what our friends are doing— on Saturday you can tour some of the New Haven neighborhoods and go to the Woman, I am Community Cookout at Roberto Clemente school, Opera Palooza downtown, and the New Haven Chalk Art Festival by the shops at Yale.

On Sunday don't miss the Unity in the Community Festival in Goffe Street Park!
