.🚧 Paving the Way Block Party: A Hemingway District Celebration! 🚧
When: Saturday, April 11, 2026 | 11:00 AM – 3:00 PM
Where: Oak Park Ave & The Hemingway District
Don’t let the orange cones fool you—the party is here! We’re teaming up with Renew the Avenue and the Village of Oak Park to celebrate our neighborhood’s glow-up with a construction-themed bash for the whole family.
Instead of avoiding the dust, come play in it! We’re turning the construction zone into a destination filled with heavy machinery, scavenger hunts, and exclusive deals.
What’s Happening:
🚜 Touch-A-Truck: Get up close with the massive rigs building our new street! Perfect for kids (and kids at heart).
👷 Ask an Engineer: Ever wonder how a street actually gets built? Meet the experts behind the project for a live Q&A.
🍦 The Golden Cone Scavenger Hunt: Find the hidden Golden Cones in our local shops to win prizes and score serious bragging rights.
🛍️ Hard Hat Savings: Launching today! Grab a "Construction Passport" for special shopping incentives, deep discounts, and "Pardon Our Progress" deals found only in the Hemingway District.
🍔 Themed Eats & Treats: From "Pothole Sliders" to "Sledgehammer Shakes," our local restaurants are serving up construction-themed specials all afternoon.
Why come? Because our district is open, thriving, and building something better for you. Come support your favorite local spots and see the progress firsthand!
