The Diversity Center's Community Festival and Walk

The Diversity Center of Northeast Ohio (DCNEO) would like you, your family, and neighbors to join us at the DCNEO Community Festival & Walk on Saturday, May 9, 2026. Formerly known as Walk, Rock, Roll & Run, this year’s event returns to the Great Lakes Science Center with a renewed focus on what matters most: connection, community, and the simple belief that everyone deserves to belong.

In addition to the Walk, there will be family-friendly interactive activities on the plaza as well as free admission to the Great Lakes Science Center and discounted admission to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

· When: Saturday, May 9, 2026

· Where: Great Lakes Science Center (601 Erieside Ave, Cleveland, Ohio 44114)

· Time: 8:30 a.m. (Walk begins)
