Description

R CITY participants and families will join R CITY for a Juneteenth Celebration at our community center's outdoor space for an afternoon of GAMES, FOOD & FUN—-all FREE for our neighbors!  The event will include youth performances and water games and we will be selling raffle tickets for prizes as a fundraiser for our summer camp programming. 

Our celebration is part of the Illinois Peace Project's "Peace Week Chicago" which is an annual, city‑wide activation harnessing Gun Violence Awareness Month to showcase and amplify the daily work of community violence intervention (CVI) groups, faith organizations, hospitals, funders, and neighbors who believe we all have a role in building a safer Chicago.

Peace Week Chicago offers daily events, actions, and learning opportunities from Memorial Day through July 4th—spanning runs, panel discussions, happy hours, volunteer drives, art activations, data briefings, and more.
