Fundraiser

Little Lawndale in the Park did not receive funding from the Night Out in the Parks program this year. We're asking our community to help close the funding gap so we can continue providing a free festival that supports local artists, youth performers, vendors, and community organizations. Please join us at our Fundraising event on August 2nd
