With a strong focus on Springwood Avenue, once the thriving cultural and economic heart of Asbury Park’s African American community, the group aims to integrate history into neighborhood revitalization and cultural tourism.

Its work will aim to preserve the memories and amplify the voices of residents whose stories have too often been overlooked, including senior citizens who remember Springwood Avenue’s heyday, youth who are shaping its future, and immigrant residents who contribute to its evolving identity.
