At Event Parteez, we believe that true community support extends beyond feeding the body—it involves nourishing the soul as well. Our programs are designed to address the basic needs of food and nutrition while fostering an environment where cultural expression and appreciation are front and center.

Through these vibrant gatherings—be it through art, performance, or culinary exploration—we break down barriers and build connections that transcend cultural differences.

Our Story
How We Got Started
Event Parteez began as a grassroots initiative by Village Family, aimed at addressing the urgent needs of hunger and cultural isolation in Norfolk, Virginia. Originating from humble beginnings with a donated pantry space at the First Calvary Baptist Church, our mission was simple: provide nourishment and foster a sense of belonging. Our founders recognized the power of combining hunger relief with cultural events to bring people together, enriching lives through food, art, and education.
Where We Are Now
Today, Event Parteez stands as a vibrant pillar of the community, having expanded beyond initial expectations. We now host a wide array of programs that include multicultural festivals, educational workshops, and art exhibitions that attract participants from across the region. Our efforts have not only reduced hunger significantly but have also created a dynamic platform for cultural expression and community solidarity.
