About SPARCS:
Since February 2023, 3x3, in collaboration with CUNY’s Center for Systems and Community Design (CSCD) and Partnerships for Parks, has been working to develop and launch co-designed, park-based programming in four New York City parks. This initiative explores how parks can serve as catalysts for improving residents’ physical and mental well-being.
SPARCS Goals:
At its core, SPARCS examines how community-led activations in neighborhood parks can influence health-related outcomes. The study focuses on mental health and well-being indicators— such as anxiety, stress, and loneliness—as well as social and physical well-being measures.
About Luther Gulick Park Arts Hub:
The Luther Gulick Parks Arts Hub was created in response to community feedback, highlighting a desire to celebrate the neighborhood’s cultural diversity and bring people together through the arts.
Residents expressed a strong interest in creative programming as a way to foster connections among the park’s diverse communities, with many eager to see workshops and events that showcase music, dance, visual arts, and storytelling from different cultures.
With the park’s open gathering spaces, seating areas, and dedicated recreation zones, the program is designed to host a wide range of activities, including live performances, interactive art workshops, and community-led cultural celebrations.
