We are Cedar-Riverside

A Summer of Immersive CulturalLearning & Celebration

Pillsbury United Communities, in partnership with other neighborhood organizations and businesses, presents We Are Cedar Riverside. This summer-long event series uplifts the cultures of Cedar-Riverside to build bridges of understanding across our community. We welcome curious learners of all ages and backgrounds to celebrate the richness of our city’s most diverse neighborhood together. The series culminates with our annual Multicultural Dinner at Brian Coyle on September 21, a beloved West Bank tradition.
