A Joyful Day at the Kilbourne Place Block Party: Community, Crafts, and Conservation 🌿🎨
Yesterday was an incredible success at the Kilbourne Place block party! The day was filled with art, music, and beautiful moments shared with the Mount Pleasant community. We had an amazing turnout at our craft table where children painted wooden ornaments that will be hung in the Colombian rainforest we helped protect. It was truly a celebration of what we’ve achieved together.
