Description
EKNA has organized into committees where dedicated individuals can pursue the issues they are most passionate about--whether zoning, trees, law enforcement, trash, or celebrating the incredible artists that surround us.
There are serious things to address, but we have plenty of fun, too. The Trenton Avenue Arts Festival is how we expose new people to the area and raise money for local projects while having a great time. The overwhelming growth and success of past festivals speaks to the growing energy within EKNA and the neighborhood itself.
