Ashmont Adams Neighborhood Association

Ashmont Adams Neighborhood Association AANA is a civic and social community organization. At our monthly meetings, members are informed on police activity, MBTA updates and other local news.

Our monthly newsletter is delivered to approximately 800 households in the neighborhood between Adams Village and Peabody Square. Ashmont Adams engages in a number of community based events including family oriented activities such as a neighborhood wide block party, a Halloween Pumkin Carving, and astology nights. Community, business, social, and politcal leaders also inform the membership of local opportunities, events, and civic happenings.
