DID YOU KNOW...?
After an official vote, Skin Alley will soon close to vehicles during the weekend! Our City Council members are working out details, but approved hours would be Fridays at 5p until Mondays at 6a. This provides opportunities for safer casual gatherings in the alley under the beautiful string lights. It’s an exciting step for the future of Norcross!
COMMUNITY SPOTLIGHT
Family Friendly Summer Movie Series
Enjoy a free movie and light refreshments at Norcross Movie Mondays! The event is held at the Cultural Arts & Community Center, located at 10 College Street, Norcross, GA 30071, every 2nd and 4th Monday of the month. Movie start times are 1:30p and 6:30p. Click here for the calendar.
