Barbara’s Moonlight Mercadito returns for its third annual scholarship fundraiser with an evening marketplace featuring local food and artisan vendors, live music, and a car show. Families can enjoy kid-friendly activities, browse a curated boutique thrift area, and take part in raffle drawings. All proceeds support scholarships for young women of color pursuing studies in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Organizers are also seeking vendors to participate.

This kid-focused event offers free meals for children with the purchase of an adult entree. Kids can spin a wheel to win prizes and treats, and there will be face painting by Brissa. Family-friendly activities pair with dining for a fun outing.

Sibshop offers a welcoming space for brothers and sisters ages 7 to 12 who have siblings with complex medical needs. Through playful, interactive activities, participants connect with peers who truly understand, celebrate the important role they play in their families, and find ways to express feelings that can be hard to share elsewhere. Children laugh, have fun, play games, and talk openly about both the good and the not-so-good parts of having a sibling with special needs. It is a chance to be heard, to be seen, and to spend time with others who get it. This group meets every third Thursday of the month. New participants are asked to register in advance.
