Event Registration

Join us for a tour of community green spaces that have been stewarded by the Lower East Side Center for over 3 decades. We will meet at Tompkins Square Park and walk about 1 mile to East River Park, stopping along the way at sites with historical and current significance to the Lower East Side Ecology Center including the Clyde Romero Memorial Garden on East 7th Street. Attendees will learn about the history of community stewardship in the neighborhood and how we can all practice care for our urban environment. This walk will be led by Ecology Center staff members Shyanne Washington and Jennifer Bombardier.

Attendees should wear comfortable walking shoes and bring water, sunscreen, and a hat. We will be completely outdoors. There will be public restrooms available at Tompkins Square Park and East River Park.
