Ward 6 Week's back! Join Ward 6 Councilmember Charles Allen from Saturday, July 27, through Friday, August 2, for a week of fun, free activities highlighting all our community has to offer.
We love calling Ward 6 home every day, but Ward 6 Week's a chance to celebrate all week long! Right now, it's hot, life's a little slower, and school's out, so it's a great time to get out, re-discover your neighborhood, and try something new.
Check out the schedule below for all the free events we have planned. Some have limited availability, so RSVPs are first come, first served. If you RSVP for an event but later can't attend, email us, and we'll make sure your spot goes to another neighbor.
Stay tuned: We're still finalizing the details on a few more events!
