Find Your Park Event

This is every science lover’s dream come true! In honor of the National Park Service’s birthday centennial, the National Park Foundation wants you to party like it’s 1993 with Bill Nye, the Science Guy (and other awesome guests) during it’s first-ever Find Your Park event at Brooklyn Bridge Park. The outdoor bash is bursting with free entertainment, including a bumpin’ DJ set by the loveable Questlove (8pm), a surprise musical performance (5:45pm), family-friendly games like corn hole, sand art and interactive stations , where you can learn about saving NYC’s parks, and free ice cream—bring your appetite—courtesy of Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory (1pm). We’re most excited for the event’s supercool experiment, in which New Yorkers can actually control the One World Trade Center’s spire by changing the color of the lights via a giant digital circuit board with help from Bill Nye (7:45pm). Disclaimer: We’re not entirely sure how Nye is able to achieve this from Brooklyn Bridge Park, but we do know that it involves science!
