Williamsburg Walks is a series of car-free Saturday afternoons on Bedford Avenue. The idea is for people to use the closure to cars in order to rethink their public space and to offer a space to celebrate the neighborhood. The event was organized by NAG in conjunction with the NYC DOT as part of their\u00a0Weekend Walks program.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Whether you are a local business, resident, or community group, this is your chance to learn about the event. Our presentation will cover all aspects \u2014 impact on the Bedford residents & businesses, ways to volunteer, how to become a programmer, the rules for sidewalk use for Bedford businesses, and much much more. Please come and share in the discussion and get excited about another year of rethinking public space on Bedford Ave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
