On the Road Again

About this event

After a summer of construction, Oak Park Avenue is getting ready to reopen—and we’re marking the occasion with a community block party in the Hemingway District.

Join us Saturday, November 14, from 8 AM–8 PM for a full day of fun throughout the district. Bring your family, tell your friends, and grab your wheels—bikes, scooters, rollerblades, and skateboards are all welcome.

Here’s what’s planned:

• Bike the Avenue — Bring your bikes, scooters, rollerblades or skateboards and enjoy the newly paved Oak Park Ave before she reopens!

• Live music — We’ll have live music and entertainment throughout the day.

• Classic cars — Check out a lineup of classic cars along the Avenue in the morning!

• Food + drinks — Grab something from your favorite local spots while you explore the district.

• Shop local — Visit Hemingway District businesses, discover something new and get a head start on holiday shopping.

• Kids’ fun — We’ll have family-friendly activities throughout the event.

• And more — More activities and event details are still to come.

Whether you come for an hour or make a day of it, On the Road Again is a chance to reconnect with the neighborhood, support the businesses that kept going through construction, and celebrate what’s ahead.
