Lethbridge Citizen Walk About marks 16th year Friday at City Hall
The four-hour event highlights the local disability community with self-advocates speaking on stage and selling handmade goods.
Lethbridge's Citizen Walk About returns this Friday for its 16th year, starting at 10 a.m. from the steps of City Hall before moving to Galt Gardens for a four-hour event.
The gathering is organized jointly by Inclusion Lethbridge and the South Region Self Advocacy Network. Spokesperson Chelsey Peat said the day will include food trucks and display tables, along with self-advocates and individuals with disabilities selling items they have made.
Peat described the event as free entertainment meant to help the public learn about the disability community, noting that self-advocates will be comfortable enough to speak on stage about issues that matter to them.
