Tulips on Troost: Explaining an Arts Non Profit

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.

Explaining an Arts Non Profit

Here's a very funny and to the point video produced by Krista Blackwood, musical director of the Kansas City based choral ensemble Octarium.

We are looking forward here in KC to next Sunday's (December 12th) Lessons and Carols featuring Octarium at St. Mark Lutheran Church (3800 Troost Avenue). It's a benefit sponsored by Tulips on Troost to support the Friends of St. Mark and neighborhood revitalization.
