 Being home more this spring has yielded some beautiful and creative garden spaces! Save the evening and drop into a few, or two dozen!, of them on the Kingfield Walk of Gardens. Gardeners will be present in their gardeners to talk about their space and their plantings from a socially safe distance. Maps will be available to download the week of the tour, and will also be available on paper at garden sites.

All tours will be socially distanced and responsibly hosted. Masks for both guests and hosts will be required.

 

On the 38th Street Bridge over 35W.

Bring your own signs, or come hold a piece of a larger banner, reminding drivers on 35W that the work of racial justice needs to continue to take place every day. This activist-action can be your weekly reminder to keep up the daily fight for a more just and equitable society.

To keep our community safe, we ask that all participants wear masks and maintain social distance during this weekly vigil.

A new weekly event taking place on various Porches in Kingfield!

We are not producing maps or promoting a community-wide party but we are encouraging musicians to take to their porches on this Thursday, and every Thursday this summer!, to share their talents with their neighbors!  This is the evening to strap on your tennies or jump on your bike and wander locally, to hear whatever may be heard from various musicians. Just look for PorchFest signs popping around the neighborhood on Tuesday or Wednesday as musicians assess their availability and the weather–this will signify which of your neighbors are intending to take to their porch to play for you that Thursday evening.

Remember — the invitation to sing or play from your porch is open to all. We can’t wait to hear the soundtrack of Frozen sung by some 5 year olds, or some Meongyn or other YMCA camp favorites from a group of teens missing their time on the trail. If you want to sing on a Thursday–just go for it. You can request a yard sign if you want to advertise it to your neighbors, or just go impromptu.

While it is a difficult time to promote celebrating, we also know that connecting to neighbors, both who they are and what they do, is a bonding and uniting force in these trying times so we encourage you to be safely out and about in community.

We do encourage:

• All people to wear masks
• All friends not already living in family-units to maintain a 6 foot distance
• If you are considering stopping to listen bring your own blanket or folding chair
• Bring money and your phone for tipping: support our local musicians with cash or credit card tips, in whatever way they suggest, at their home-stage.

Stroll the neighborhood on Thursday evening June 18 and listen for the sounds your neighbors are sharing.
