This 10-week course offers a comprehensive, behind-the-scenes perspective of Avondale city government, with interactive and informative workshops on topics ranging from how the city runs to future development and building strong neighborhoods. Participants will take a "quality of life" tour of city parks and facilities, and get a close up view of police and fire vehicles and apparatus during the public safety workshops.

Classes will be held on Thursday evenings from 6 to 8:30 p.m., with two exciting Saturday field trips. Enrollment is free, and is open to Avondale residents 18 years and older. Space is limited to the first 20 participants.
