Greenpoint Arts Block Festival 2016 with PCINY

08 sierpnia, 2016

It is a neighborhood street festival including cultural, educational, and recreational projects with the goal of promoting both Polish and local artists, highlighting the Polish identity of Greenpoint, and integrating its old and new inhabitants.

The Polish Cultural Institute New York (PCINY) will have a booth at the festival for the third year in a row, presenting information about tourist attractions in Poland, Polish history and traditions, language and art. The festival is a great opportunity to find out firsthand about upcoming cultural events organized in New York by the PCINY.

This year, we are celebrating the legacy of Henryk Sienkiewicz, the most outstanding and prolific Polish writer of the second half of the nineteenth century, who in 1905 won the Nobel Prize for Literature. We will be inviting guests to read excerpts from his prose.



On the program will be Polish and local artists displays, concerts and dance performances, photographic exhibitions, art workshops for kids and adults, board games and urban sports tournaments, a photo booth, contests with awards, Polish and local food, arts and crafts, and lots of other attractions!
