WHO CAN PARTICIPATE?
Community Organizations and Local Artists
● We are searching for Bushwick community organizations to
host
informative booths alongside displays by local volunteer
artists.
● We are also searching for fun, family-friendly activities and
perform-
ances for the center circle of the park.
● Our goal is to create a fun family atmosphere for neighbors
and
visitors to learn more about the Bushwick community and the
services
your organization offers.
● We would love to discuss this more with you in person or over
the
phone if you would like.
