Location: Arts Plaza at The Parks, 6810 Cameron Drive NW
Date: Saturday, December 3, 2022
Time: 5 pm to 6:30 pmÂ
All are welcome. FREE. Many thanks to our partners, Housing Up and the Shepherd Park Citizens Association.Â
In 2021, we partnered with Housing Up on their Holiday Drive, which raised funds to purchase gifts for the nearly 1,500 children in their permanent supportive housing program. We'll have a wrapping station so all you crafty folks out there can help wrap and label the new gifts!Â
Then, we held a brief program featuring:Â
- Naima Jefferson, President, Shepherd Park Citizens Association
- Rev. Terri McLellan, Senior pastor of Shepherd Park Christian Church
- Rabbi Michael Werbow, Rabbi at Tifereth Israel Congregation
- Mark Simpson, Urban Atlantic
