PLAY, Street Marker, and a Jazz trio on Blake Ave in Brownsville

August 11, 2021, 12:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Come play and make chalk murals on four Wednesdays on Blake Ave between Rockaway Ave and Mother Gaston Blvd, an Open Street in Brooklyn. PLAY NYC features a colorful obstacle course that offers safe, hands-free play for children on closed-off streets, and Street Marker offers a way for multiple people to make beautiful chalk patterns and murals together. On two Wednesdays (Aug 4 and Aug 11), we’ll be joined by the Ai Murakami jazz trio thanks to Gotham Yardbird Sanctuary. Thanks to our host in this location, Brownsville Community Justice Center.

Made possible with funding from the Mayor’s Office of Neighborhood Safety and in-kind support from NYC DOT. Street Lab cultural programs are supported in part by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo and the New York State Legislature, and citywide by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in partnership with the City Council. With additional support from ConEdison Arts Al Fresco.
