Evansville – Nearly 50 community organizations will be participating in the Children’s Day Celebration and Resource Fair this Saturday, April 25, from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. at Stockwell Park/Parque Latino. The event is hosted by Evansville Vanderburgh Public Library, CareSource, Centro Latino + Americano, LIGA Link, and the Immigrant Welcome & Resource Center.
