Brooklyn Bridge Park announces 2015 summer lineup
Kicks off with ‘Celebrate Brooklyn! Dance Parties,’ beginning May 14
Brooklyn Bridge Park has announced its summer lineup, which officially kicks off with “Celebrate Brooklyn! Dance Parties,” presented by BRIC beginning May 14.
Along with stunning waterfront views, visitors will be able to enjoy an array of free cultural, educational, and recreational events. This summer the park brings back long-time audience favorite Syfy Movies With A View, along with Books Beneath the Bridge, The Metropolitan Opera, Jazzmobile with special guest Bobby Sanabria, the World Science Festival, and Shakespeare at Sunset.
Brooklyn Bridge Park will host more free events this season that should appeal to a wide variety of visitors. On May 17, a park-wide installation Please Touch the Art by Danish artist Jeppe Hein opens, featuring 18 playful sculptures designed specifically for public interaction, including a Mirror Labyrinth and Modified Social Benches.
