Playdate in the ParkA play-based workshop on Sept. 21st, 2025 in Fort Tryon Park



1

Play brings childlike wonder, well-being, and a sense of community


Go on a tree trek. Meet the trees in the park! Learn how to identify and talk about different tree characteristics using your senses and a provided tree ID guide. 

Become a collaborative nature artist. Using any materials found in the park, everyone will work together to create a collaborative Earth art piece. 

Explore and reflect. Sit in the park and express how you feel in nature through writing, sketching or sharing with others.
Our play-based workshop will provide you with language and tools to deepen your relationship to the natural environment.




Playdate in the Park was a PlayRX.Life program presented as part of UNGA Healing Arts Week, an New York City-wide celebration of arts and health during the 80th Session of the UN General Assembly, produced by the Jameel Arts & Health Lab in collaboration with the World Health Organization.
