Open Streets in Your Neighborhood is coming to Ward 5’s 12th Street NE at the end of August! The event will close half a mile of 12th Street NE to cars and open them up to people to ride, bike, walk, socialize, and participate in fun programming, just in time for school!
12th Street NE is known for its quaint, corner-street businesses – check out the amazing flavors and styles that make the Brookland neighborhood special. The neighborhood is also home to a variety of cultural, religious, and historical landmarks and institutions, such as the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, a Franciscan monastery, Catholic University of America, and Trinity Washington University.
We will feature educational programming specifically geared towards children of all ages and abilities. You won’t want to miss this Open Streets event!
No cars, just people.
