The Environment Committee is a great way to build community and create hope. Get to know neighbors and do something, even something small, to protect and improve our natural environment. Together, we can take small steps, on our way to the changes we need.

The mission of the History Committee is to collect, research, and interpret stories and historical events related to the Seward Neighborhood and to share them with the public for purpose of education.

SNG’s Block Club resources support the leaders who keep Seward feeling like a small town in a big city. Whether you’re starting a new block club or keeping an established one going, these resources are here to help you get—and stay—connected.

The SNG Small Grant program funds community-proposed initiatives that support the neighborhood. Since 2023, the Small Grant program has included beautification efforts, street art, festivals, educational events, restorative justice, as well as BIPOC and renter resident engagement.

The Seward Garden Tour brings neighbors together each year to stroll through the beautiful gardens of the Seward neighborhood. The evening wraps up with an after-party in a backyard garden, complete with refreshments, light snacks, and door prizes. Proceeds support community-led initiatives and beautification projects in Seward.

Seward Yard Sale Days brings neighbors together each fall for a weekend of garage and yard sales across Seward. Residents sign up to add their address to the neighborhood map and welcome shoppers to browse sales throughout the community. It’s an easy way to clear out unwanted items, meet neighbors, and enjoy some time outdoors. There’s no fee to participate in 2026.
