What
began as “Save the Huntridge” has blossomed into “Revive the Huntridge” and the
team is looking to the local community members to help with a very special
event. Huntridge Revival LLC is proud to announce the next step in the
revitalization of this beloved community epicenter – the BYOB! Bring Your Own
Brush Community Painting Party.
Abatement
work is currently underway in preparation for this special event. Attendees and
professionals will work together to give the building a much needed coat of
paint, taking the first step in creating the future look of the venue.
Also
on-site both days will be a fulfillment center, where people who contributed to
the Indiegogo fundraising campaign will be able to pick up their perks.
Of
course, no Huntridge event would be complete without music and community
spirit. A farmers market, vendors, food trucks and live entertainment will add
a layer of fun to the two-day event.
“We’re
excited to have the locals come together to help preserve the beauty of this
historical building. For years every
time I drive by I just want to go get some paint and a brush and have at it -
finally everyone who has felt the same will have that chance!” said Huntridge
Revival, LLC partner Joey Vanas.
