We’ll be hanging out at the FREE Genesee River Party with our Inclusion Partner, Genesee Land Trust!
Come find our RAA table and let’s celebrate together!
This event is hosted by Genesee Land Trust, and all details can be found at their event site.
The Genesee River Alliance team has coordinated with the City of Rochester and many community partners to temporarily close the busy Driving Park Bridge (pictured) and turn it into a pedestrian-only live entertainment stage. We’re also filling Maplewood Park Rose Garden with lots of family-friendly activities, and there will be a free lunch provided.
Bridging Communities: A Riverside Celebration
When: Sat. July 27th; Noon – 3:30 pm
Where: Maplewood Park Rose Garden + Driving Park Bridge, 250 Maplewood Ave. Rochester (across from Maplewood YMCA)

Accessibility: An ASL interpreter will be on site, the event will have ADA porta potties, and we have dedicated accessible parking spaces inside the park and at the YMCA. Please contact Genesee Land Trust with questions and/or to share other needs.
