Happy 1st day of fall! 🍂🍁 Leaf peeping season is around the corner and one of the best spots to enjoy fall colors is from the Roanoke Star Overlook 😍 Be sure to add it to your list for gorgeous views of the city and excellent photo ops.

⭐️ Afterwards, head to the bottom of Mill Mountain for ice cream at @bluecowicecream 🍦

Some places hold more than events — they hold memories. ❤️

Elmwood Park has been a gathering place for so many of us. Different ages, different generations, different moments — all sharing the same space.

And tomorrow, we get to make some more. 🥹

Henry Street Heritage Festival is bringing generations together for a Family Reunion filled with music, food, dancing, games, family traditions, and moments we hope the little ones will grow up remembering.

Bring Grandma. Bring the kids. Bring your cousins. Bring the family you were born into and the family you chose.

Tomorrow, we gather. Tomorrow, we celebrate. Tomorrow, another generation of memories begins. ❤️

📍 Elmwood Park Amphitheater
📅 Saturday, September 19
🚪 Doors open at 1PM
