Kingfield Neighborhood Association

Dear Kingfield, how do we love you? Let us count the ways!—

It’s Give to Max Day Thursday November 14, so we Ask that You Consider Donating to KFNA, Your Most Local Nonprofit!

There are so many things to love about Kingfield…a great park, a hopping weekly market, delicious homegrown food cooked up by local restaurant owners, plus (and here is where KFNA comes in!) a jumble of engaging and creative events, meetings, and activities designed to keep you informed and get you engaged with your community.

 

And this “community” isn’t something that just happens, it is something that Kingfield Neighborhood Association (KFNA), your local nonprofit, works really hard to create. Why? Because we believe that now, more than ever, taking time to grow connections and foster community can make a foundational change to not only our neighborhood but also in our city and country.  Also, by building a welcoming, inclusive, open and caring community we will have a positive impact on our current and future neighbors.

Learn more about what KFNA does and consider making a donation to your local nonprofit organization here.  Thank you!

NICOLLET AVE WILL BE CLOSED THIS SUNDAY (9/22)…

By

With the exception of vehicles participating in Nicollet Open Streets, NO PARKING is allowed on Nicollet Ave between Lake and 46th Street from 9:00am to 5:00pm. Please don’t spoil your weekend by having your vehicle towed!

At 10:30am the police will begin shutting down the street for motor vehicle traffic. During the event, vehicles will be able to cross Nicollet Ave at a few select signalized intersections as directed by traffic control agents and police.

Nicollet Open Streets gives residents and visitors a chance to explore and enjoy our neighborhood, bringing together local businesses, institutions, artists, and neighbors to bike, walk, play, and shop in a car-free environment.
