According to CitySquare Block Party Chair Susan Salka,
“There is something special about being part of a community where neighbors and friends come together to make a difference and what better way to celebrate community than with a Block Party!
“The first annual CitySquare Block Party will take place on Saturday, November 6, from 6:30 until 10:30 p.m. at The Empire Room in the Dallas Design District. Texas fall weather is perfect for the indoor and outdoor event that will include an array of food stations and cocktails, fun interactive neighborhood experiences, a silent auction, all culminating in partying and dancing to the fabulous Manhattan Band.
“CitySquare quickly pivoted our work in 2020 to respond to the devastating impact of a global pandemic and a terrible winter storm. We adapted our programs to respond to the physical, emotional, and economic destruction that so adversely affected our neighbors. Generosity and unwavering support sustained us in the fight and showed our city the power of community.
“Proceeds from the first annual CitySquare Block Party will enable us to continue addressing the issues of poverty while feeding the hungry, healing the sick, housing the homeless and renewing hope in the heart of our city.
“Sharing my commitment is the event committee of CitySquare supporters including Gillea Allison and James Ray, Lewise and David Crockett, Wendy and Boyd Messmann, JJ Ponce, Kerry Perez and Lindsey Thomas, as well as honorary committee members Brenda and Larry James, Lynn and Bruce Cope, Karen and Tom Falk, Malahat and Ali Kizilbash, Karen and Tom McCracken and Cathy and Dave Shipley.
