The
Clean up is a semi-annual event where Berkeley neighbors and City staff work
together to beautify College Avenue between Russell and Webster.
Activities include painting out graffiti, planting and weeding flowers,
fixing irrigation, removing concrete and much more! It is a great
opportunity to enjoy the neighborhood, snack on pastries, and meet people in
the community.
Sponsored by the Elmwood Steering Committee
comprised of merchants and neighbors
working to support each other.
