🌮 May Community Potluck - Celebrate Cinco De Mayo
🗓️ May 7th, 2026
⌚ 5pm-9pm
📍 Siouxland Center for Active Generations
Celebrate Cinco de Mayo with an evening of food, fun, learning, and community connection. Whether you have a little extra to share or could use a little extra support, you are welcome here!
🌮 Community Potluck Dinner (5–7:30 PM)
We’ll be serving a full taco bar as our main dish — and as always, we make sure there’s enough food for everyone, even if no one else can bring a dish to share.
If you bring a dish to share, please stop by the welcome table to fill out an ingredient card so guests with allergies can make safe choices.
We will also be posting a list of ingredients and items we need for the taco bar as we get closer to the event. Donations of food items are always appreciated and help us continue feeding our community.
At the end of the night, all leftovers are delivered to The Warming Shelter, ensuring that every contribution helps feed someone in need.
🌱 Gardening Class: Take‑Home Tomatoes (6 PM)
Learn how to grow your own container tomatoes!
Participants will receive hands‑on instruction and take home their own tomato plant to nurture throughout the season.
🎉 Activities Happening All Evening (5–9 PM)
👕 Clothing Swap
Bring your gently used, clean clothing to lay out on our swap tables. Everything is free to take! If you don’t want to bring your leftover items home, we’ll add them to our clothing closet so they can continue helping others.

❤️ Our Mission
We exist to bridge the gap between those who have a little extra and those who need a little extra help. Events like this bring our community together, and ensure that everyone has access to food, resources, and connection. We believe that joy shouldn't have a paywall, and hope those that join us leave nourished, body and spirit!
If you’d like to bring food, donate ingredients, or help with setup, we’d love to have you involved.
Everyone is welcome — come as you are and enjoy a night of community, culture, and celebration.
This month was brought to you by the generous support of Seaboard Triumph Foods! We couldn't do this without the continued support of our community partners.
