C21 @ Beet Street Fall Festival

• Saturday, October 3, 1-7 PM

Swing by C21’s booth at the Cactus Club’s annual autumn block party uplifting the intersections of music, community causes & seasonal treats.

We’ll be there to tell you all about our 2026-27 programs and events, and to get you thinking about Slow Action, our current research theme, which is all about the practices, methodologies, histories, and theories of collective organizing across communities and institutions.

We’ll also have typewriter poetry on demand, courtesy of one of the newest members of our Advisory Council, Johnny Types Ink, plus zines galore, a collaborative mini protest banner garland, and Story Cart-style interviews.

What’s Beet Street?

A neighborhood block party started in 2016 to celebrate the season with live music performances from local and international artists, delicious food and drink, unique learning opportunities and activities with a few dozen citywide organizations and a maker’s market. Rain or shine, Beet Street takes place the first Saturday of October from 1pm-7pm. The family-friendly celebration takes over the block of S. Wentworth Ave. between Potter (Goodkind) and Russell (Cactus). Learn more about Beet Street Fall Festival.
