Community events

Family events happening near you.

Farmers markets, pop-ups, small bands, story times, swaps, and festivals, all in one place and sorted by county. Free to browse, and free to add your own family-friendly event.

How it works

Simple to host, simple to find.

Tell us about your event, we give it a quick review, and once it is approved it shows up here for families in your county. Everything is free.

1. Submit your event

Fill out the host application below with your itinerary and a flyer link. It takes a few minutes.

2. We review it

Our team checks that it is family-friendly and complete, then approves it. We may reach out with questions.

3. Families find you

Your event appears on this board, listed by county, so local families can plan to come.

Find an event near you.

Search by your state and county, or type a metro area like KC Metro. Skip ahead here any time you already know how it works.

Event application

Host a family-friendly event.

Planning a market, pop-up, show, class, swap, or festival that welcomes kids and families? Tell us about it. Once approved, it goes on the board for families in your county to find.

Who can host. Two kinds of hosts are welcome here: parents and guardians planning something for local families, and businesses or organizations running a family-friendly event. A library story time, a farm day, a bounce house night, a coffee shop's kids' morning, a class for children. Nexus Point Family Foundation serves families raising children from pregnancy through age 18, so every listing needs to be an event those families can come to. The form asks which kind of host you are.
A note on approval. Every event is reviewed by a person before it appears, and we reserve the right to decline or remove any submission, for any reason, to keep the board safe and welcoming for families. Submitting an application does not guarantee a listing.
Hosting takes an account. Browsing the board is open to everyone and always will be. Applying to host needs a free account, so we can reach you about your application and so every event on the board traces back to a real person. It takes an email and a password, nothing else.

Create an account or sign in above, and the application form below will unlock.

About the event

Share one link to a flyer you made, set so anyone with the link can view it. We add it to your listing once approved.

About you (kept private)

Your contact details are shown only to our review team, never on the public listing.

You will see a confirmation here once it is submitted. Reviews are done by a real person, so listings usually appear within a few days.
