Every week, we’ll share a round-up of links and articles relating to the Lower East Side, East Village, and issues that we care about, like education, health & wellness, the arts, and much more. Enjoy and happy Friday!
“Art Worth Seeing on the Lower East Side” (The Lo-Down) – The best gallery shows in the ‘hood, according to our own Audrey Hope, coordinator of our Young Artist Program.
“City Council Members Share Their Objections to Child Care Cuts” (NY1) – Elected officials show support for after school programs. Want to help save them? Check out Save After School Now.
“Mind the Age Gap” (The Local East Village) – Interesting perspective on the state of aging in the East Village. What do you think?
“The Boys & Girls Club & High Tech? They Mix” (New York Times) – The 150-year old organization is focusing on social media to support its mission. We love that!
