New York City has finally made it to Phase 4 of its reopening and we couldn't be more excited.
What does this mean? It means that low-risk arts and entertainment including outdoor museums, nature parks, zoos and botanical gardens etc. are back. Pro-sports, like baseball, are also back but without fans. Social distancing and face coverings are still mandatory.
Indoor dining, movie theaters, indoor museums, shopping malls and gyms will remain closed, however there are so many things to do and see.
Here what is coming this week:
Sun, August 2, 2020: Paint In The Park! (Central Park Social Distance Paint 'N Picnic)
This event requires a mask and something to sit on.
Social distancing will also take place, therefore availability will be limited (only 10 people).
Painting materials and a canvas will be provided and you can take your own food and drinks.
