Everyone’s favorite pet festival is back! For more than two decades, Joybound Around Town (formerly called Animals on Broadway) has been attended by hundreds of pets and people annually at Walnut Creek’s Broadway Plaza. This event also serves as one of our biggest fundraisers of the year, to bring in essential funds for pets and people.
