Ballet Hispanico, Freeze Dance, Drag Story Hour, Face-Painting and more – all on the agenda for Free To Be You on June 18th, Saturday, in FDR Four Freedoms State Park.

The Four Freedoms Park Conservancy yesterday announced an expanded annual event celebrating personal freedom and creativity in the park. Free To Be You is, in fact free to you.
Set aside the date. Registration information will soon follow.
What the Promenade Remembers
The light on the East River in the early morning is different from the light anywhere else on the Island. It comes in low and sideways, catching the water in long, uneven flashes. On certain days it makes the promenade feel less like a walkway and more like a corridor someone once meant to finish but never quite did. When I was younger I found the suggestion to stop and look at it faintly ridiculous.
