S.T.A.R “Infinite Hope” – MLK Jr. Day Community Building Event at the Y

In the spirit of unity and understanding and in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Stand Together Against Racism (STAR) and the YMCAs of Bridgeport, Greenwich, New Canaan, and Wilton/Riverbrook Regional (which serves Norwalk, Redding, Wilton) are proud to present a unique and interactive community building event featuring arts and crafts and a mind mapping project. Each town will present an identical event on-site. Date is Monday, January 15 and times vary by location. New Canaan is 2pm-4pm.

“Last year’s “Infinite Hope’ MLK Jr. event at the New Canaan YMCA was so well received, we wanted to extend the program to more towns and we are thrilled that area YMCAs happily and enthusiastically agreed to partner with us,” said Fatou Niang, Founder and CEO of STAR. Each YMCA will host an identical event featuring MLK-inspired arts and crafts and a mind mapping exercise appropriate for all ages that fosters reflection and unity, celebrating the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

This event is free and open to all ages. All are welcome at each YMCA to come together in the spirit of collaboration and understanding. Drop in any time during the hours noted below to participate. Let us come together as a Fairfield County community, reflecting on the past and building a brighter future for all.
