Love Festival for Developmental Disabilities

A timely and unique celebration 

2021 LOVE Festival was canceled because of Pandemic

Held every year since 2000 as “Festival” of disabilities’ creativity and co-creation, the developmental disabilities’ LOVE Festival has evolved into the largest Korean American children’s celebration and a permanent quadrennial event in out Nation’s Capital. The LOVE Festival pulls together America’s diverse communities around their shared concern for children, their health, and creative education. Open to the public, the LOVE Festival attracts more than 1,500 attendees.

Every year, we are holding the LOVE Festival on April 4th Saturday, at Whittier Narrows Park from 10:30am to 2:30pm. We need 100+ volunteers to help all attendees to have fun at the event! Free lunch and T-shirt are provided. (Due to a limited quantity of T-shirts, all volunteers may not receive the T-shirts.) Please contact us at contact@myhappyvillage.org to sign up and for more information!
