Do you check on the parking situation on Google maps before going to an
event? And then debate between a garage near your destination or walking the length of a sunbaked parking lot?
Then this event is for you.

Join WalkArlington on Saturday, September 13, in an exploration of Halls Hill, a historically African American neighborhood in Arlington known for its strong sense of community.
The tour will visit the Segregation Wall and the Langston-Brown Community Center, and will feature six stops along the way. Participants will hear from Wilma Jones, president of the John M. Langston Citizens Association and author of My Halls Hill Family: More Than a Neighborhood, as well as other great speakers.
This event is a great reminder of the very real history of segregation that took place in Arlington's not too distant past, and the impacts that such policies had on Arlington residents.
