Jane's Walk: Connecticut

Jane’s Walk is a global festival of free, volunteer-led walking conversations inspired by community activist Jane Jacobs, held annually on the first Saturday in May. This day of community engagement encourages people to share stories with their neighborhoods, discover aspects of their communities, and connect with their neighbors. This walk will be taking place in 18 locations throughout Connecticut.
