CURRENTLY ORGANIZING IN FORT GREENE, BROOKLYN – GET INVOLVED!

We are Brooklyn: A Community Block Party

WE ARE BROOKLYN: A Community Block Party, held on August 4, 2018, outside the Ingersoll Cornerstone Community Center at the intersection of Myrtle Ave and Fleet Street. The block party was led by Artist-in-Residence Najee Omar, and presented by the Intergenerational Community Arts Council (ICAC). Building on the long-standing legacy of summer block parties in Brooklyn, WE ARE BROOKLYN was an arts-filled event where neighbors of all ages came together to dance to DJs and live music, create collaborative artworks, access Fort Greene neighborhood cultural and social resources, participate in games, sports, and creative workshops, connect with one another and celebrate the ICAC’s core values of passion, liberation, family, courage, vision and truthfulness.
