Join us for 2026 Annual Meeting
See Instagram for updated information!
The Wells Park Neighborhood Association meets the 2nd Tuesday of each month (except July and December) at 6:00 PM at the Johnny Tapia Community Center.
The Annual Meeting is held on the last Tuesday of March (5:30pm-7:30pm), when we elect new board members. Pursuant to the updated City of Albuquerque Neighborhood Association Recognition Ordinance (NARO), WPNA can no longer require payment of dues to become a voting member of the association. However, as we use dues to help cover the costs of putting on our Annual Meeting and Board election, as well as to help fund other neighborhood events, we greatly appreciate and encourage any annual donations from our members. Our previous annual membership was $5 per member.
Registered neighborhood members also receive a FREE family membership to Explora.
