Block Party underscores importance of connection, citizenship, locality
On Saturday August 8th, 2009, members of Nanaimo’s Diver Lake Community, and other neighbours, were invited to a block party called Neighbours Being Neighbours. It was hosted by Columbian Centre Society along with a large group of community and business partners including the Nanaimo Theatre Group and Surfside Recovery House.
We speak with some of the organizers and participants in the Neighbours Being Neighbours block party, in a segment taped on-site.
