The Hands Across the Falls event will still be held Saturday despite closures along the Monroe Street Bridge.

The event, which is put on by Community-Minded Enterprises and Recovery Café Spokane, is a public showing of support celebrating recovery.

Those celebrating line the Monroe Street Bridge and hold hands, observing a moment of silence for those who lost their lives to addiction.

Community-Minded Enterprises expects over 600 people will attend the event, which coincides with a Resource Fair.

The event will happen at noon on Saturday, but attendees are encourage to arrive 30 minutes early.
