Viva Streets: City Park to Stapleton

Viva Streets is back this summer, celebrating our City streets' potential to get people moving, to bring neighbors together, and to strengthen Colorado’s healthy, active culture.  On August 12, 2012, LiveWell Colorado and BikeDenver will transform 23rd Avenue between City Park and Stapleton into a car-free parkway for all Denverites to enjoy.

The streets will be closed to cars and will come alive with walkers, bikers, runners, strollers, hoola-hoopers, dancers, paraders, musicians, healthy food purveyors and anyone wanting to play in the streets for the day.

To learn more, visit the LiveWell Colorado website.  You can also watch the video below to learn more about the Viva Streets celebration.
