Join Charlottesville Tomorrow at Gordonsville in Bloom this Saturday, April 18, and make your voice heard in this year’s elections!
Charlottesville Tomorrow will be meeting community members at the festival from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. next to town hall, located at 112 S. Main St. in downtown Gordonsville.
Gordonsville in Bloom is free to attend and is a celebration of all things spring, with DIY flower bouquets, a growing station, vendors, community resources and live music by Andrew McKnight and Beyond Borders.
And while you’re enjoying the spring blooms and activities, you can help shape Charlottesville Tomorrow’s 2026 Central Virginia Voter Guide, where candidates answer questions about the issues that matter to you.
Come chat with us and let us know what’s on your mind — from education and healthcare to data centers and referendums — and we’ll use your questions to create this year’s Q&As for candidates.
Grab a blanket or a camping chair, and celebrate the changing of the seasons with your friends and neighbors while taking an active role in our democracy.
