Neighbor Nights: Game Night!
We’ve been listening to the needs and ideas our neighbors and 5150 and in the NWSide Community and we’ve heard that y’all would love a chance to gather around fun activities and events such as Bingo, dancing, karaoke, game, or movie nights. In collaboration with some of you, we’re launching a new programming series: Neighbor Nights!
These events are free to the public and are meant to be a lowkey way to relax, hang out, and get to know your neighbors at 5150 and in our far NWSide neighborhoods! For July, we’re hosting a game night! We’ll have plenty of games to share, but we encourage you to bring your favorites as well.
If you would like to help organize, sponsor or co-host upcoming Neighbor Night, email us at info@fpcchicago and let us know. Thank you for sharing your ideas and collaborating with us at Friendship Community Place!
