Neighbors,
I recently began as the Executive Director of the Upper Georgia Avenue Main Street. We provide technical assistance to small businesses along Georgia Avenue between Missouri Avenue and Eastern Avenue, promote the commercial corridor, and host special events. We will be hosting multiple art activations for the Upper Georgia Avenue Main Street's Art All Night on September 24 and 25 from 7:00 p.m. - 11:00 p.m. I hope you can join us. Please see more details about each of the art activations below.
