Come see the Big Balloon Build at the Highland Woods Community Center! After a week of hard work from balloon artists around the world, their creations will be open to the public. This will be the only time the balloon build will be available for the public to see.
In lieu of an admission fee, the builders are requiring those who wish to attend to bring a bag full of canned goods. These donations will help the United Way’s canned food drive for local food pantries.

Photographs will be taken by Chelsea Polston of In a Blink Photography.
