You're invited! Join the Public Housing Community Fund and Design Trust for Public Space on Thursday, April 17, 2025, from 8:30–10:30 AM at the beautiful New York Botanical Garden, 2950 Southern Boulevard, Bronx NY 10458, for a special Legislative Breakfast celebrating the launch of the Green Space Connections Toolkit: A Quick Reference for Improving NYCHA Open Space. This exciting morning event will feature Majority Leader Amanda Farías as our special guest speaker and offer an opportunity to connect with leaders and changemakers working to reimagine and activate public housing green spaces across the city and learn more about how you can support NYCHA open spaces and the 525,000 residents of public housing. Complimentary parking and post-event access to The Orchid Show: Mexican Modernism are included. We warmly invite elected officials, their staff, NYCHA resident leaders, and partners to attend. Registration is now closed - please email openspace@communityfund.nyc with any questions. As a reminder, this event will be held at the New York Botanical Garden in their Garden Terrace Room.
