The Alliance has been invited to participate in Westover Day! This family-friendly community day celebrating Westover's neighborhoods will include live music, children's activities, food trucks, and ART! That's where we come in. The Alliance has been invited to add art and color to this event by participating in a variety of ways. Thank you to Alliance member Pauline Kusiak for this opportunity! Please read the following details in their entirety, and then sign up to be a part of this wonderful event.
