Community Building Committee (CBC)
The community building committee creates space for neighbors to participate in and share their community with one another. We connect East Harriet residents through a web of events and information that builds relationships and community among neighbors, including:
• Neighborhood events like RoseFest, KiteFest, Sale-O-Rama (garage sale), and the Garden Tour
• EHFNA's eNews
• www.eastharriet.org - the neighborhood's up-to-date source of information
• Block clubs for social and safety purposes
How you can be involved:
Join us for Community Building Committee meetings if you have something you’d like to discuss or learn more about. The committee meets on the second Monday of each month at Walker Place,3701 Bryant Ave, (North Entrance under green awning) at 7 pm.
The next CBC meeting is scheduled for Monday, June 10, 2013.
Contact Adam Faitek via email if you have an idea for a community building project or if you would like more information about the committee.

SW Senior Center Celebrates Community Mosaic
Southwest Senior Center partnered with CARAG, the City of Minneapolis, and over 180 volunteers to create a Community Mosaic on the Bryant Ave Market exterior north wall.
Everyone is invited to a celebration and unveiling on Saturday, November 19

volunteer artists. At 11 am, the group will parade over to Bryant Ave
Market, 3200 Bryant Ave S, to have the grand unveiling.
For more information, contact Mary Ann Schoenberger at 612.822.3194 or mschoenberger@voamn.org. The mosaic project was funded by the City of Minneapolis Innovative Graffiti Prevention Micro Grant, Calhoun Area Resident Action Group (CARAG) and Volunteers of America-Minnesota. |
