A crowd gathered in the parking lot of West Hartford Town Hall for several hours on Sunday, Nov. 2 for a community block party.
The event was free to attend, and the purpose was really just to celebrate the West Hartford community and forge connections. Organizations and town departments set up booths and greeted visitors and handed out information, there were games, face-painting, music, food trucks, and a special Indigenous song and dance performance.

A collection table for the West Hartford Food Pantry also brought in an outpouring donations of non-perishables as well as financial contributions to support West Hartford residents in need.
The Community Block Party was hosted by the Town of West Hartford, RiseUP for Arts, West Hartford Public Schools, and the America250 West Hartford Committee.
