OutlookJoin the Central Park Conservancy for a fresh alternative to the tired old happy hour scene, at the Harlem Meer Social Hour, our exciting monthly series for adults.
This month, take a break from the buzzing nightlife of NYC to experience a different kind of nightlife in Central Park’s North Woods! After mingling over complimentary refreshments in the Dana Center, Regina Alvarez, Central Park Conservancy Woodlands Expert, will lead us on an awe-inspiring walk by the Harlem Meer and through the woods in pursuit of an after-dark serenity that is near impossible to find elsewhere in Manhattan. Leave the street lights behind to see the glowing moonlight, hear the sound of the waterfall and the crickets chirping, and perhaps catch a glimpse of elusive nocturnal creatures including Eastern Screech Owls and raccoons. Wear comfortable shoes and warm outerwear.
This program will happen rain or shine. If inclement weather prevents us from visiting the North Woods, our Social Hour will take place wholly in the Dana Discovery Center and will consist of an entertaining and informative presentation by Regina Alvarez on Central Park’s nocturnal wildlife.
Space is limited, so arrive prompty to ensure your spot. No advance registration. For more information, please call (212) 860-1370.
