Hillview street was hopping with excitement for the return of the music-filled block party Giving Hunger the Blues.Â
Fans of rock, blues and jazz crowded the block Sunday afternoon to catch favorite acts with proceeds benefitting the Mayors’ Feed the Hungry program and the Women’s Resource Center of Sarasota County.  Between live performances attendees enjoyed local vendors and games.Â
