Lincoln Park Coast Cultural District (LPCCD) has announced ACTIVATE THE COAST, a series of outdoor happenings centered around the City of Newark’s historic Lincoln Park that will bring Newarkers and day trippers “Back Together Again” around music, dance, food, culture, small business vendors and wellness in a safe and socially distant environment. The series of events are powered by the City of Newark, its Back Together Again initiative and the Newark City Parks Foundation.
“Newark has amazing outdoor green spaces. Not only are we bringing people “Back Together Again”, we’re using arts, music and wellness as a catalyst to bring new attention to spaces that were formally blighted or underutilized.” States Christopher A. Watson, Planning Officer, City of Newark and Safe Summer Initiative. Watson continues “The City of Newark Safe Summer Initiative’s goal is to continue to strengthen our partnerships with the community anchor institutions by reinforcing those bridges that were already formed.”
Tomorrow, September 11 starting at 9:00am, the newly formed Lincoln Park Sustainable Living Community Walkers Club powered by HOKA will gather outside for a series of 3-monthly urban terrain walks from Lincoln Park through the community to Newark’s other downtown parks for residents of all ages. The LPCCD Sustainable Living Community Walkers Club continues October 2 and October 30 and is hosted by team captain and Newark fitness influencer Tehsuan Glover. It’s free and participants are encouraged to register online.
