The Uni Project launched a one month residency in historic White Park, named for civil rights activist and author, Walter White (1893-1955). We’ll be here four Friday afternoons starting May 19, assisted by students from the Young Women’s Leadership School of East Harlem and Nightingale-Bamford School who are participating in the Youth Advisory Council program of Riley’s Way Foundation. Presented in partnership with the Friends of White Park Alliance and NYC Department of Parks and Recreation, and made possible with funding from Manhattan Borough President Gale A. Brewer and in-kind support from George Mercado, owner of local establishment, Bean Y Vino. Thank you, everyone!

Volunteers from Riley’s Way Foundation Youth Advisory Council wear bunny ears, and there’s a reason.
