The Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy seeks to educate and inspire adults and kids of all ages with the wonders of Brooklyn Bridge Park and the East River. We offer a series of hands-on, park-focused programs designed to provide participants with an engaging on-site experience as they learn about the natural ecology of the park. All programs are offered on a first-come, first-serve basis.

For information on booking group classes and for course offerings, please see A Living Classroom in Brooklyn Bridge Park.

Public educational programming is over for the season. Please check back in Spring 2012 for extensive course offerings, like Seining the River Wild, Feathered Friends, the Great Brooklyn Bridge, and more.
