On Saturday, May 2nd there will be a Block Party at 18th & H Streets hosted by Jacob’s Well, a resident-led youth group in the area, NWL, and the Capitol View Neighborhood Association. Students from the Lincoln Public School’s Arts & Humanities Focus Program have been working on a portable mural and chalk board that will be used to capture people’s ideas of what they would like to see the vacant commercial building at 2001 J Street become. Suggestions so far have included a coffee shop, a youth gathering place with computers and tutoring or an art studio. If you have an idea for a new use for the 2001 J Street building, stop by the Block Party on May 2nd from 2PM – 4PM at 18th & H. Join in on the conversation!
