Free school supplies for every kid on the block — plus free food, and the street closed to traffic all day.
Albany Avenue closes between Church and Linden and the whole block comes out. Supplies are free, the food is free, and there's nothing to sign up for at the door — though it helps us plan if you let us know you're coming.
Bring the kids, bring a neighbor. If you want to help — or you've got supplies to donate — call or text any of us at the bottom of this page.
Print it, text it, put it in a window.
Our last Back-to-School & Community Day was Saturday, September 13, 2025. This is all of it — the photos and video the block took that afternoon.
Everything listed above is something you can see in the pictures and clips below. We've left out head counts and anything nobody wrote down — this is just the day as it was photographed.
Got photos from that day? Send them over and we'll add them. In one of these and want it down? Call or text — it's gone, no questions.
