Calendar of Events

Welcome to our Events Calendar, your go-to resource for all upcoming activities and opportunities to connect with the community! Here, you’ll find a variety of events designed for families, including workshops, support groups, resource fairs, and fun community gatherings. Each event is thoughtfully planned to foster connections, provide valuable resources, and create an inclusive environment for all. Be sure to check back regularly to stay updated on new events and registration details. We can’t wait to see you there!

At Bridging Communities, we create events for many reasons: to connect families with one another and foster a sense of belonging within the community, and to promote inclusivity and accessibility for all. We collaborate closely with hosts and their staff to ensure each event provides a welcoming environment that embraces everyone. All our events are offered at no cost to families, making it easier for everyone to participate. While registration is typically required to help us plan effectively, we strive to make each experience enjoyable and enriching for all attendees. Join us in building a stronger, more connected community!
