My husband and I have been to this urban block party in the past, and have enjoyed the teens’ enthusiasm and creativity, with art, performances & their quest for knowledge. Pennington Street is usually closed between Stone Avenue and Scott Avenue for this event, which is located west of 6th Avenue downtown.
