Jody Sperling/Time Lapse Dance, The Columbus-Amsterdam BID, and Love Your Street Tree Day join forces to present the 2nd Annual Amsterdam Eco-Arts Festival on the Open Boulevards at Amsterdam Avenue between 109-110th Streets.
This festival continues the organizers' aim of activating Open Streets with joyful gatherings of people on land that is usually occupied by cars. This free public program features a community planting, Native American storytelling, multidisciplinary performances, and a movement workshop for all ages.
The festival begins with a community bulb planting to beautify a stretch of the Minerva Bernadino Greenstreet led by Peter Arndtsen and Michael Gonzalez of The Columbus-Amsterdam BID and Melissa Elstein of Love Your Street Tree Day.
Following, Irma Laguerre and Vida Landron of Children's Cultural Center of Native America offer a Native American storytelling session on the tale of Rainbow Crow for children and grownups of all ages.
