Join FBC NYC and Washington Square Park EcoProject for an ecological exploration of one of Manhattan’s most-beloved public green spaces!
Georgia (Local Nature Lab/Washington Square EcoProjects), Divya (FBC NYC), and Alex (FBC NYC) will be guiding participants through an exploration of the plants and birds of Washington Square Park. Learn about and touch some of the fascinating trees you can find, discover the many ways to identify trees and birds, observe their beauty holistically via artistic and ecological lenses, and connect more deeply with the rich and wild ecology that surrounds us, even in a densely human-developed place like Manhattan!
May 30
6pm
Washington Square Park
Event is strictly limited to 15 participants and requires pre-registration. The event is FREE but donations gratefully accepted!

Accessibility
We will be walking primarily on flat paved surfaces, but in order to approach some trees participants might need to cross grassy areas with slight inclines. WSP has many benches and opportunities to sit down and has accessible bathroom facilities.
