Williamsburg Walks 2012

Sat June 9th. Sat June 16th. Sat June 23rd.
Rain or Shine!

Williamsburg Walks is a series of car-free Saturday afternoons on Bedford Avenue. The idea is for people to use the closure to cars in order to rethink their public space & to offer a space to celebrate the neighborhood.

Bedford Ave will be closed from Metropolitan Ave to N12th. The street closure will run from 1 to 930pm. Community programming from 3-8pm.

The event is organized by NAG in conjunction with the NYC DOT as part of their Weekend Walks program. http://www.nyc.gov/html/dot/weekendwalks/html/home/home.shtml

NAG is looking for community groups and artists who would like to participate. We are looking for volunteers to help set-up and clean-up. We need sponsors to help provide the $$ to create our grassy oasis. There are plenty of ways for groups, businesses, and local residents to get involved.

For more info on the event, to get information on how to participate, or to volunteer, message us here on FB or email us at nag.bklyn@gmail.com
