Upcoming Events

The events calendar for District 27 gathers the community forums, cultural celebrations, and informational meetings that Councilman Leroy Comrie's office schedules throughout the year. Neighborhoods such as Cambria Heights, Hollis, Jamaica, St. Albans, Queens Village, and Rosedale each host gatherings that reflect the character and concerns of the people who live there, from health discussions to civic conversations. Dates listed reflect what has been announced on the district calendar, so residents are encouraged to confirm timing with the office before traveling to any venue.

Health-focused forums have long been a staple of the district calendar, including a Valentine's Day healthy heart forum hosted by Councilman Comrie. Sessions like these bring useful information into community spaces, connecting residents with information about wellness, prevention, and the resources available locally. The format is deliberately informal: a public room, a topic that matters to families, and a chance to ask questions of people who work on these issues every day.

Cultural celebrations and seasonal programming form an important part of the district's public life. These gatherings offer an opportunity for neighbors across the 27th Council District to come together, participate, and see the diversity that defines southeast Queens and northwest Brooklyn's border communities. For a district built on block parties, church events, and town hall meetings, the calendar serves as a running record of where the community shows up and what it cares about.

Informational meetings on government and services round out the calendar, giving residents a direct way to hear about decisions that affect schools, hospitals, senior centers, and youth programs. Voters who feel shortchanged by city hall often say they want more say in how these services are funded, and forums provide a forum for exactly that kind of exchange. Attendance is open to the public, and the atmosphere is conversational rather than ceremonial.

Press releases and contact resources accompany the events listings, offering residents additional ways to follow district news and stay involved between gatherings. Councilman Comrie's office has built a campaign organization around door-to-door conversations and volunteer participation, so many of the events listed are shaped by the questions residents raise beforehand. Attending a forum, sharing a calendar listing, or volunteering at a community celebration all extend that same sense of public service beyond election season.
