Two Decades, Two Epic Nights: Common Ground Community Development Celebrates 20 Years of Impact

For 20 years, Common Ground has been the pulse of local connection—powering our community through art, music, storytelling, hot meals, clothing, haircuts, and essential support services. A milestone this big can’t be contained in just one night, so we’re doubling down! Mark your calendars for two unforgettable, back-to-back anniversary events on October 3 and October 17.  

So, what makes Common Ground the heart of our community? Here is a look at the dynamic work and life-changing services we’ve been proud to champion for two decades:

  • Fighting Hunger & Restoring Dignity: In partnership with the Burrito Project, we provide fresh meals to our unhoused neighbors 4 times every week.
  • Honoring Our Veterans: We offer free, specialized classes designed to support and uplift veterans in our community.
  • Empowering the Next Generation: We enrich homeschool education with hands-on learning in engineering, culinary arts, sewing, podcasting, journalism and creative technology.
  • Fostering Creativity & Expression: We bring low-cost art and music education to both children and adults, nurturing lifelong talents and self-expression.
  • Providing Safe Havens for Recovery: We host weekly Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) meetings, offering a stable space for healing and hope.
  • Building Local Opportunity: We empower local entrepreneurs and workers by hosting weekly business networking groups every Tuesday.

Join us Saturday, October 3rd from 1pm to 3pm for a free Open House/ Common Ground Community Celebration! Enjoy pop-up performances, food & coffee, raffles, a photobooth, milestone moments & more!  No need to RSVP – just come on in. As we like to say, “You Belong Here.”
