Research and best practice finding (25%) Survey New York and other cities’ practices to find promising models that promote community revitalizing efforts in parks and public spaces, especially in public spaces where there are vulnerable populations of drug users, sellers, and unhoused community members’ needs are met while the social, community, and recreation needs of other park stakeholders and users are also met. We produce SummerStage, the iconic free, outdoor performing arts festival in NYC, presenting world-class artists from across the globe and our own neighborhoods on our mainstage in Central Park and in local parks in all five boroughs, and our Swedish Cottage Marionette Theatre and roving PuppetMobile present marionette puppet theater throughout New York City.
