And paint your vision LAST DAY MARCH 3rd!

Of a greener Bronx as part of a collaborative project. For smaller groups or groups we could break into smaller sections...

For a limited time only there is an opportunity for you to paint a circle step on a 5o foot diameter canvas labyrinth that will be unveiled next month at the Annual Parks Speak Up at Lehman College.

Many people form throughout the City have added their colorful vision of a better environment and more harmonious world.

Including Citizen One, Zimad, Joseph and Donna, Ludger of urbandivers.org, Span (whose olde school subway tag is seen on the recent Beastie Boys DVD) and many organizations, classes and youth groups.

Timing by appointment or give a ring to see if we'll be open when you swing by.


Also on display are plans and visions for a greener waterfront and the new park to come on the Harlem River, soon!
