Once again, Sundays on State transformed the iconic State Street into an unforgettable block party complete with interactive games, shopping, food, drinks, and cultural events on July 14th. The award-winning event series is put on with the help of the Chicago Loop Alliance, the Chicago Loop Alliance Foundation and Special Service Area #1-2015 as a way to unite neighborhoods, create joy, and bolster underrepresented business owners. Held twice each summer, the events were supported by a Chicago Presents grant from the City of Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs & Special Events.  Supporting sponsors are Allstate Insurance Company, Macy’s and Target. The event sponsor is Block 37. Community sponsors are CannonDesign, Choose Chicago, Concorde New Media, Divvy, Flyover, Millennium Garages, NASCAR Chicago Street Race, and StarEvents.
