Greetings Neighbors!
The Neighborhood Connection Project "NCP" (Learn more about NCP on Facebook and below) is looking for a few good citizens to become a few great community leaders. Is this you? Are you ready to be the leader your community needs you to be? What ideas to beautify your community are you interested in bringing to life?
Join us for a conversation about becoming an NCP community leader. We are meeting on Wednesday, May 25 from 6:30 PM - 7:45 PM at the Edgebrook Library (5331 W. Devon). You'll meet with the current group of NCP citizen-leaders, learn about NCP and be able to share your thoughts about how you might want to better your community. This will be a fun and casual gathering. NCP welcomes all citizens of all ages, city and suburbs alike, to consider beautification projects in their own neighborhood.
Questions? Please ask...Jac.charlier@gmail.com We hope to see you there!
What is NCP? Started in Spring of 2010, the Neighborhood Connection Project (NCP) is a democratically gathered, citizen-led initiative to build community by repairing and beautifying the Metra railroad underpass located at Kinzua, Hiawatha and Lehigh. Completed in August 2015, NCP is the largest outdoor public art bricolage mural on Chicago's Northwest side. Thanks to community funds raised and the financial support of After School Matters (ASM), NCP also provided summer internships for 90 local teen apprentices. We also thank Green Star Movement (GSM), NCP's partner in youth art
