The School of Arts is thrilled to partner with the New York City Department of Parks & Recreation<\/strong>\u00a0to invigorate public spaces with a vibrant array of arts programming. This collaboration aims to activate parks across Queens with diverse, inclusive, and dynamic arts events, enriching community experiences and promoting cultural vibrancy throughout the borough.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

As part of this exciting partnership, the ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ School of Arts will transform local parks into thriving centers of creativity and engagement. The program features both emerging and professional artists from ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ, offering a rich lineup of performances and workshops spanning music, dance, and visual arts. Throughout the season<\/span>, parks in the Rockaways, Forest Park, Highland Park, Southeast Queens, District 7A, and Flushing Meadows Corona Park will host a variety of <\/span>free <\/span><\/b>events. This initiative not only provides enriching cultural experiences for the community but also offers valuable professional opportunities for ºì¶¹ÊÓƵ School of Arts students and recent graduates.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
