The fourth annual Southwest Central Durham CommUNITY Festival at Lakewood
will take place on October 28 from 12 noon to 6 PM at the Lakewood
Shopping Center, 2000 Chapel Hill Road, in Durham. This years festival
coincides with National Make-A-Difference Day, a celebration of neighbors
helping neighbors, sponsored by the Durham Community Land Trustees.
CommUNITY Fest is a free event featuring live music and dance, as well as
local food, crafts, nonprofit booths, neighborhood history displays, and
family fun activities. Music this year includes Jon Shain, John Dee
Holeman, The BilliTones, Different Drum Trio, Generations Jazz Quintet,
and the TROSA Band.
The six neighborhoods comprising Southwest Central Durham include Burch
Avenue, West End, Lyon Park, Morehead Hills, Lakewood Park, and the
Tuscaloosa-Lakewood neighborhood. Many have been designated National
Historic Districts and they all represent classic examples of Durhams
cultural, ethnic and socio-economic diversity. The goal of CommUNITY fest
is to celebrate the gifts, talents, and history of our community by
bringing people together in a fun, festive atmosphere, thereby building an
even stronger community. The success and growth of this festival shows
that we are well on our way. We thank you for your support.
