Up to 40 young authors join adult artists, allies, and community stakeholders to celebrate and elevate communities by researching, documenting, and remixing the past and present stories of their families, streets, and community. Block by Block culminates every year with a celebration featuring public art, a live reading by young and adult authors, foods, games, and lots of joy.
