Pennington Street Block Party

Celebrate youth. Celebrate community. Join in the fun at the 4th annual Pennington Street Block Party on Friday, April 20 from 4:00-7:00 p.m.

The PENNINGTON STREET BLOCK PARTY: a family-friendly event in the heart of Downtown Tucson celebrating what young people do to make our community a better place. Fun for all ages! Musical performances and teaching demos, interactive booths, one-act plays, art installations and exhibits, carnival games, and more. An annual event showcasing youth creativity, learning, and service, as part of Global Youth Service Days.

The 3rd annual Pennington Street Block Party was a big success, despite the cold and drizzle! Check out the photo gallery. It was an uplifting, fun, and informative showcase of youth talents, youth learning, and youth service – in, for, and with the community!
