Diverse Evanston Walks United

Youth Organizations Umbrella (Y.O.U.) and a coalition of Evanston non-profits are please to announce the eighth annual Diverse Evanston Walks United (DEWU). DEWU is a community-wide celebration that engages youth and families from across Evanston and Skokie in performances and speeches that promote non-violence. 

This year's DEWU will feature original songs, choreography, dramatic performances, and visual art pieces created by youth. The event will also feature guest speakers around the theme of "What It Takes," in honor of the perseverance and resilience of Civil Rights leaders.

Following the performances, from 1:30 to 4:00 p.m., we are also pleased to offer a free lunch and reception with an anti-violence workshop.
