The nonprofit Welcome America Inc. and its partners are taking it to the streets. And they are hoping their message registers. Or at least that you register. They are creating a fun way to engage in the voting process. When We All Vote for “Celebrate Philadelphia” is a two-weekend block party designed to raise voter registration and civic engagement for the November general elections. Learn all about voting while enjoying rodeo-themed games and pop-ups like a mechanical bull, line dancing, corn hole, sack racing, and free food including pizza courtesy of OnePhillyConnect and Herr’s. It’s all part of Michelle Obama’s national, nonpartisan voting initiative and the Every Voice, Every Vote project to get voters registered and ready to vote. The Celebrate Philadelphia block parties will feature performances, engaging conversations, activations, giveaways, and more. “As we kick off the Celebrate Philadelphia block party series, we are sending a powerful message: Voting is not just a duty, it’s a celebration. Through music, dialogue, and civic action, we are energizing our communities to come together and make sure their voices count,” said Chairman Omar Sabir, City Commissioner who was featured in these FunTimes’ pages recently. Part of the event will focus on new and young voters -- millennials, Generation Z -- and underrepresented communities, through voter education, community mobilization, and panel discussions. The Committee of Seventy, a nonpartisan advocacy group for better government in Pennsylvania, will offer election information for adults and activities for kids to learn about the democratic process.
