West Side Fest on the High Line: Hidden Worlds Family Workshop

The High Line gardens are teeming with plants, soil, fungi, and insects that are all working together to make NYC a greener place. Guided by High Line Teaching Artists, families will look closely at the plants on the High Line while learning about the special relationships that help plants thrive. Join us as we create artworks inspired by the beauty we see in urban ecology.
