Waverly Commons

The Waverly Commons is an outdoor event venue located on the corner of E 32nd Steet and Brentwood Avenue in the heart of Waverly Main Street.

We encourage projects that support Waverly businesses and center around community, social justice, intergenerational and cross-cultural collaboration, arts and cultural work, and youth-run or youth-oriented events. Our aim is to accommodate as many events as possible.
