Activities will include:

Joining the Immigration Project for their Cake Walk: a chance to win a sweet treat and learn more about their legal and social services.

Visiting with Project READ to enjoy books and games and get more information about their tutoring programs.

Listening or dancing along to music and playing games brought by the Urbana Park District's UrVANa.
