Upcoming GHNA Events in 2026

The Annual Garfield Heights Block Party – June 20, 12 - 4pm

Claremont Between Marengo and Garfield

Nearly 20 years old, the Garfield Heights Block Party is famous for its fun games, contests, foods, crafts, and the swinging tunes of the live, 18-member, Gem City Jazz Cats big band! The first generation of GHNA kids who grew up soaking each other with water balloons are now running the booths and serving the snow cones!

Want to get involved? We are currently recruiting volunteers and sponsors for our longest-running, multi-generational, neighborhood tradition! Please contact Danny Parker at [email protected] and be sure to visit the Block Party webpage for more information!
