Donate Your Bike At The Trenton Ave Arts Festival This Saturday

The Trenton Ave Arts Festival is happening this Saturday from noon - 5:00 pm in Kensington. We will be there, as will hundreds of other vendors, organizations, musicians, and food trucks.

Neighborhood Bike Works will also be there, and they will be holding a bike drive for their programming. Have an old bike you no longer use? Donate it to their youth programming!

Neighborhood Bike Works is a fabulous organization endowing urban youth in Philadelphia with educational, recreational, and career-building activities and opportunities through bicycling. Give that unused bicycle in your garage or basement a new sense of purpose by donating it to NBW this Saturday.
