The East of the River Fall Fest is our annual back-to-school drive and community block party hosted at our Max Robinson Center in Anacostia. Each year, this free festival brings together multiple organizations, partners and community members for an afternoon of live performances, GO-GO music, food, HIV testing and fun!

Please note: This event has been rescheduled for Friday, Aug. 30th due to rain and thunderstorms. We hope to see you then!
