Bridge the Gap: Healing After Fentanyl Loss | Little Rock News

This Friday night, Riverfront Park hosts the powerful seventh annual Bridge the Gap event, a moving tribute to those lost to fentanyl overdose and a beacon of hope for grieving families. Started by Staci James after her son Hagen’s death in 2019, this community-driven initiative has grown from a small gathering to a massive event drawing over 1,200 attendees across eight states. With 50 vendors offering vital resources, food trucks, kid-friendly fun, and a haunting walkway lined with 9,000 photos of lives cut short, the evening is both a memorial and a call to action. Free and open to all, it begins at 6 PM and ends with a candlelight service — honoring the past while building a future where no family has to face this pain alone.
