Madison Square Park
This six-acre park has it all: rotating art
exhibitions, kids concerts, burgers and milkshakes, a playground with toy
soldiers, 19th century sculpture, storytelling events, a sunny lawn, shady
benches, and more!
Ephemeral Art
The Temporary Public Art Program has sited the
works of hundreds of artists in city parks, creating an outdoor gallery that's
always open.
