Our History
The Auditorium Neighbourhood Association began in 1990 as part of an initiative by Bryan Stortz, who was then City Councilor.
Today the Association has never been more vital. With our involvement in the city wide Festival of Neighbourhoods, a constitution, this web site, buzzing on social platforms, and a handful of ambitious initiatives the ANA just keeps getting better.
