Description

A festival of international fun will signal the start of spring for families in Downtown Phoenix. ASU Prep Downtown Phoenix is bringing the community together for the second annual Spring Fling celebration from 4 to 7 p.m., Friday, March 22. A special feature of the evening will be a series of multicultural performances honoring the heritage and culture of this diverse Phoenix neighborhood.

To complement the lively entertainment, families will also be able to enjoy a selection of international-themed foods and desserts, along with an array of family-friendly activities, arts and crafts projects, raffles and other prizes.

The free neighborhood event is open to local families, including those interested in exploring enrollment at ASU Prep’s Downtown Phoenix campus, a tuition-free PreK-12 public charter school with in-person, online and hybrid programs to help students succeed through college and beyond.

Hosting community events like the Spring Fling celebration brings families and the surrounding community together. During the free event, families can explore the school, meet staff, tour the building and experience some of the engaging educational activities that inspire children to excel in the classroom.
