About the Event

Lighting the Way: Save Our Historic Lampposts Block Party

Saturday, August 15 • Noon–4:00 PM


Belmont Avenue between Vista Street and 3rd Street

Join your neighbors for an afternoon of music, food, conversation, and community as we come together to help preserve one of Belmont Heights' most distinctive historic features: the gas lamp-style lampposts along Belmont Avenue.


Enjoy live performances from local musicians, buy from food vendors, share a favorite dish at our community potluck, meet fellow neighbors, and learn more about the effort to restore and protect these historic lampposts for future generations.


This family-friendly block party will serve as both a fundraiser for the lamppost restoration project and an opportunity to sign our community petition supporting their preservation. Every donation and every signature helps demonstrate that Belmont Heights cares deeply about preserving the details that make our neighborhood special.


Whether you've lived here for decades or just arrived, we invite you to pull up a chair, share a meal, enjoy some great local music, and help write the next chapter in the story of Belmont Heights.


Bring a dish if you'd like, bring a friend if you can, and bring your love for this neighborhood.


Together, we can help ensure these historic lampposts continue lighting Belmont Avenue for years to come.
