The Troost Avenue Festival is an afternoon of ?neighbors celebrating neighbors? as a meeting place of diversity rather than a dividing line, with music, dancing, and sharing on Saturday, May 14, 2005.
People who live and work in the Troost, Prospect and Main Corridors between 15th & 47th Streets are encouraged to participate in all aspects of the Festival. Entrepreneurs, businesses, faith groups, organizations, artists and musicians are invited to create activities in ten areas of concern- art, community, communications, education, environment, health, justice, resources, science and spirituality.
The idea for the Troost Avenue Festival was created by the Race Relations Action Team, one of several teams of citizens that came together through the KC Forums project and with encouragement from the vision of Human Investment section of the FOCUS Kansas City Plan.
