¡Celebramos! Residents gather in Roberto Clemente Park for a day of art and creativity

It was a great day for a party at Roberto Clemente Park in Cleveland’s Clark-Fulton neighborhood this past Saturday, July 31. So, MetroWest Community Development Organization, along with Cuyahoga Arts & Culture, LAND studio, and the Cleveland Foundation hosted ¡Celebramos!—a free day of fun and creativity to celebrate the community.

Area residents came out for dance performances, musical entertainment, and arts activities.

Volunteers were also on hand to provide voter information from the Cuyahoga Board of Elections, and La Mega Cleveland offered COVID-19 vaccine information.

And Panchitas Grill brought free food for the group.

FreshWater Cleveland’s managing photographer was  there last weekend to capture all the fun on camera.
