The Martindale-Brightwood festival will return this year, featuring a neighborhood parade, live music, and a community feast. The event will take place on July 30 from 2-8 p.m. at the Historic Polk Stables in Indianapolis.
Funding Announcement
KIPP Indy, with a grant from Lilly Endowment Inc., will invest $5.5 million over four years in six community-based organizations serving Martindale-Brightwood. The recipient organizations were selected for their commitment to the neighborhood and alignment with the community’s Quality of Life Plan.
The festival will kick off with a neighborhood parade down the Monon Trail, followed by a press conference and the Tysha Hardy-Sellers leadership award announcement. Attendees can enjoy live music, dance performances, and networking events for business owners. Tours of coworking spaces, Polk Stables, and the Polklore Micro-Museum will also be available.
The investment is designed to strengthen student academic achievement and expand opportunities for success after high school. For more information, contact Immanuel Ivey or Joanna Taft.
