Next DNA Monthly Meeting
Monday, September 14th, 2026
Donate to this year's Roadrunner Food Bank Drive!
The Classic, Eclectic, and Eccentric!c 2026 Home and Garden Tour was a huge success. Special thanks to the homeowners and gallerists who so graciously opened their properties to 700+ curious, interested ‘tour-ists’. EVERYONE said nice things.
And extra special thanks to the 35 docents who volunteered to serve as knowledgeable guides at the 10 homes, galleries, and gardens for the 2026 Historic Home & Garden Tour.
The day was enjoyed by all. Many of our touring guests returned having attended the 2024 and earlier DNA Home Tours. For many, the tour has become a family tradition for Mother's Day.
The funds raised by the Home Tour are returned to our community with donations to our schools, food bank, Forrester Halloween extravaganza, and our Neighborhood Night Out. The home tour is the only DNA fundraiser, held only every other year.
It's never too early to sign up for 2028. Contact us to let us know your interest!
We want YOU on the DNA BOARD!
Any resident of the Downtown Neighborhood (see map) , including renters, may petition to join the Board. At DNA’s next meeting the current Board members will vote to approve you. Our By-Laws allow for 15 Board members. We currently have ten Board members.
Submit your name on the Contact Us page.
As a Board member, you will share your opinions and ideas on how to improve and maintain our unique neighborhood.
The Downtown Neighborhoods Association is committed to being a safe, inclusive, and caring community for all our neighbors—renters, homeowners, and those who are unhoused.
We believe that violence against civilians, no matter the source, has no place in a just and healthy society. Our neighborhoods should be places where people feel safe, respected, and protected. Harmful law enforcement actions, raids, and other forms of state or institutional violence undermine the wellbeing of our community and erode trust, stability, and belonging.
As a nonpartisan organization we affirm that community safety, human dignity, and the right to live without fear are fundamental values.
We commit to standing with our neighbors through advocacy, by calling for accountability and justice at the city, state, and national levels, and by working to ensure our downtown neighborhoods remain compassionate, welcoming, and protective places for everyone.
If you have concerns about your safety in our community, please contact us at info@abqdna.org and we'll bring your story to the attention of our city officials anonymously. Or if you prefer, you can contact them directly at https://www.cabq.gov/council/find-your-councilor/contact-all-councilors.
