The Bedstuy Block Association (Home of the Tompkins Block Association) is a community-led initiative formed by residents, business owners, and creatives along Tompkins Avenue.

Centered on connection, collaboration, and care, TBA was created to strengthen community ties and foster meaningful relationships among neighbors.

Our mission is to cultivate lasting connections, support local neighborhood enterprises, and celebrate Bedstuy’s rich cultural heritage through creative, collective action. From community gatherings to local campaigns, TBA is dedicated to nurturing a connected, thriving, and culturally vibrant ecosystem — rooted on Tompkins Ave, building throughout Bedstuy.
