On Saturday, June 15 at Northridge Park, 821 Chevy Chase, some 30 area residents gathered for a morning to “Paint in the Park,” from 9:30-11:30 a.m. Residents met in the shaded pavilion and enjoyed an opportunity to flex their creativity on canvas. All of the supplies and technical help were made possible by City Council District 10 Councilman Marc Whyte and his team.
Oak Park Northwood Neighborhood Association (OPNNA) president Gina Galaviz Eisenberg (my wife) thanked the Councilman “for putting this together for our neighborhood.”
She said, “The goal was to foster community togetherness in the first-ever Painting in the Park. And it worked. The event brought neighbors of all ages together.” Eisenberg added, “We are planning another morning to Paint in the Park in the fall.”
