Hope Downtown Network announces 2025 Taste of Hope theme

HOPE – Hope Downtown Network board members recently held their first planning meeting for the 3rd Annual Taste of Hope. The event will take place on Saturday, October 4, 2025 from 6:00 PM – 8:30 PM in Historic Downtown Hope.

The board selected the following theme for this year’s event.
Taste of Hope Goes Main Street
“Oh, the Places We Will Go!”

The theme conveys more than one meaning. Taste of Hope will “go Main Street”, because the event will be located on Main Street this year. Also, Hope Downtown Network recently applied to move forward to the Associate level under Main Street Arkansas, thus the tagline stating “Oh, the Places We Will Go.”

Barb Noble, Hope Downtown Network Board President, shared her enthusiasm for the selected theme, “This theme will allow us to celebrate a new location to keep things fresh. Restaurants and eateries will line the street along with our display of LIVE Auction items, Fund-a-Project pictures, and fun & games. Everything will be in close proximity to the dining tables. Our tagline, “Oh the Places We Will Go” will allow us to get creative and have fun with Dr. Seuss decorations.”

Hope Downtown Network will soon distribute Save-the-Date information along with sponsorship opportunities.
