Sherwood Community Center (3740 Blenheim Blvd, Fairfax, VA 22030) from 10 AM - 2 PM.

The event will kick off with a special family-friendly performance by Grammy Award-winning artists 123 Andrés from 10:00 AM to 11:00 AM. Known for their energetic and educational shows, 123 Andrés will debut a brand-new song about emergency preparedness designed to engage kids and families in a fun and meaningful way.

This performance sets the tone for a day focused on building a more resilient and informed community.
