Tulips on Troost: An Exciting Lessons & Carols Takes the Troost Stage

Tulips on Troost aims to change the face of Troost Avenue by planting one million tulips along the Avenue in honor of an early Kansas City leader, Dr. Benoist Troost. Through this mission, we hope to inspire and motivate the citizens of Kansas City to recognize the value of neighborhood capital improvements and beautification in some of the city's most under-served neighborhoods. Tulips are just on the surface—our deep-rooted goal is to use a beautiful, accessible thing like a tulip to represent positive change on Troost and to let the city know that Troost is worth our time, efforts, and resources.

We're looking forward to this Sunday, December 12th event with OCTARIUM at St. Mark Lutheran Church (3800 Troost Avenue). Lessons and Carols is a Tulips on Troost sponsored event to benefit the Friends of St. Mark which means the restoration (and beautification) and continued community service of this historic KC landmark on Troost Avenue.

And, we're grateful to these 9 community leaders who will participate.
