About this Event

Join a Harlem Walk & Talk focused on the future of parks and open space.

This free, guided community tour will bring together residents, parks advocates, and community leaders to walk through a portion of Harlem to discuss the opportunities and challenges facing neighborhood parks. Along the way, participants will hear from local advocates and partners about the importance of investing in Harlem’s green spaces and ensuring every New Yorker has access to high-quality parks and open space.

Together we’ll explore how parks support community health, climate resilience, recreation, and quality of life, and discuss how stronger public investment and community engagement can help build a more equitable parks system.
