Explore Gainesville and the Kiwanis Club of Gainesville are collecting nonperishable food items to benefit The Georgia Mountain Food Bank.
Together, these entities invite the community to come together and support local families in need. “Bring a canned good to the square and be a part of something meaningful while enjoying live music, summer vibes and time together in beautiful downtown Gainesville,” the announcement says.
• Friday, Aug. 1
• Downtown Gainesville square
• Live music begins at 7 p.m.!
