Day of Defiant Hope

On Saturday, June 1, the historic Christ Church San Marcos, an Episcopal Church in Tarrytown, invites Westchester residents to connect with organizations making a positive impact in their communities.

Day of Defiant Hope will feature free barbecue with vegetarian options available, dessert and live music. Barbecuing will take place on the church lawn, while community groups will be set up inside the church, which has been a staple in Tarrytown since 1836.

Throughout the day, representatives from the Midnight Run, WESPAC Foundation, Westchester County DSA, Ossining Micro Fund, Episcopal Charities, Democracy Now!, and Sleepy Coffee, Too, will be available to answer questions about ways to get involved with their organizations, either by volunteering or joining as members.

Organizers of Day of Defiant Hope say the goal is to remind local residents that they have a voice in the ways they want to make change in the world.
