Again, we would be targeting either May or October, which fits in the existing event calendar. Again, we're looking at Brentwood Boulevard, it's very wide, easy to set up on just like Music and Wine and Jazz Festival. We would be showcasing international artistic and culinary expression, bringing together visual and performing artists, fashion, jewelry designers, artisans, food, and the local community. We would have art expositions, live art demonstration performances. and food involved. We would be looking to partner with the Clayton Community Foundation, local schools and studios, nonprofits focused on international artisans such as COCA and international festivals. Could I interject one thing? I'm sorry. I think just in terms of the event goal, as it's stated here, if you think about how the goals were stated for Open Streets or other what goals are. I think the goals for this are really not about the description of the event, but they could be, and these can change, but things like promoting diversity, educating our community on other cultures, bringing other cultures, other communities into our community for the experience, things like that. Those are goals. And again, those don't have to be the goals, but that's the kind of thing I think should be bodied in the goals here. Go ahead. Yeah, sorry. Thanks for adding that there. And that was an oversight on our part.
