Art in the form of photographs, paintings, dance, poems and prose is
one of the primary ways New Yorkers learn about nature in the city. A
panel of artists will focus on what attracts them to nature in the
city, what compels them to work with nature and how their reflections
help others to appreciate nature and its management in an urban
environment. This program is the final part of the series Engaged with
Nature, sponsored by New Yorkers for Parks, New York City Audubon and
The Municipal Art Society.
