About ResFest
What started in 2005 as a neighborhood resource fair has grown into one of Reservoir Hill's favorite annual traditions -
a day where neighbors, families, local organizations, artists, and businesses come together to celebrate everything that makes our community special.
We're still putting the finishing touches on this year's event, including performers, activities, giveaways, and special guests, so stay tuned - there's more to come.
At the end of the day, ResFest has always been powered by the community. We hope you'll join us.

📌 A quick note: Like many community organizations, we're navigating a challenging funding climate this year. Our goal is to deliver the same vibrant, welcoming ResFest our community has come to know and love while doing more with less.
If you'd like to support the event, donations are always appreciated - but volunteers, community champions, and people willing to spread the word are just as valuable.
