SUMMARY:Pinkster Celebration
DESCRIPTION:Prospect Park Alliance presents a Pinkster celebration in the yard of Lefferts Historic House\, an 18th century Flatbush farmhouse that serves as the park’s historic house museum\, in timing with the completion of a multi-year restoration. Chief Baba Neil Clarke\, the Pinkster Players and friends\, including long-time Lefferts storyteller Tammy Hall\, will lead this family-friendly event\, which will feature music\, history\, performances\, storytelling\, demonstrations\, games and food related to this historic celebration of Africans in New York. \nRSVP to reserve your spot: \n \nAbout Pinkster \nAfricans enslaved in Brooklyn celebrated Pinkster for almost 200 years. Chief Baba Neil Clarke along with other cultural leaders revived this almost forgotten tradition as a way to commemorate the culture and history of Africans in New York. Pinkster is the Dutch word for Pentecost\, a spring holiday celebrating the founding of the Christian church. This was the only time each year when Africans enslaved in New York were legally allowed to gather with their families\, play music and dance in public\, and trade goods. In doing so\, enslaved Africans preserved their cultures and built new rituals. Over the years\, they transformed Pinkster into a festival of African culture\, one of the oldest in what became the United States. However\, in 1811 New York began outlawing this important centuries-old holiday\, forcing African New Yorkers to preserve its traditions in private. Revivals of Pinkster have been growing in popularity since the 1970s and the Alliance hosted its first Pinkster at Lefferts Historic House in 1990. \nChief Baba Neil Clarke is a master drummer and performer born and raised in Bedford Stuyvesant. He has toured the world performing with artists such as Randy Weston\, Harry Belafonte\, Dianne Reeves and Miriam Makeba. He is also a scholar who researches and teaches the history of percussion\, and especially the role of the African drum in the Americas. He has been leading Pinkster celebrations for decades at Philipsburg Manor\, Weeksville Heritage Center\, and many other sites across the state. \n\n  \nAbout Lefferts Historic House Programs \nFollowing the Pinkster celebration\, Prospect Park Alliance will present a series of events in June in the Lefferts Yard in celebration of Caribbean American Heritage Month and Juneteenth. Starting in July\, the Alliance will present regular programming in the Lefferts Historic House museum’s outdoor yard\, and will reopen its interiors for exhibits and programs later in the year. Regular operating hours will begin on July 8\, and take place Thursdays-Sundays from 12-5 pm through Sunday\, November 19. The house will also be open on all school holidays (except Thanksgiving and Christmas Day)\, and have extended hours during summer months. \nThe Pinkster Day Celebration is funded in part by the Mellon Foundation\, which has awarded Prospect Park Alliance with a Humanities in Place grant for its ReImagine Lefferts initiative\, which is re-envisioning the mission and programming of the museum to explore the stories of resistance and resilience by the Indigenous people of Lenapehoking\, whose unceded ancestral lands the park and house rests upon\, and the Africans who were enslaved by the Lefferts family. Through this initiative\, the Alliance seeks to engage the public in thoughtful dialogue about the ongoing legacies of dispossession and enslavement in Brooklyn and beyond. Additional funding for the Pinkster Celebration is provided by NYU Brooklyn. \n  \nPinkster Celebration will happen rain or shine! In the event of extreme weather\, please check prospectpark.org for updates.

SUMMARY:Spring Plant ID Walk (Ridgewood Reservoir)
DESCRIPTION:Join naturalist Caitlin Lynch to observe and learn about plants at the Ridgewood Reservoir. \n*** \nCaitlin Lynch is an urban naturalist\, environmental scientist and plant aficionado based in Brooklyn. She has worked with the NYC Parks Department\, Natural Areas Conservancy\, and NYC H20 on a myriad of restoration\, stewardship\, and ecological surveying projects throughout the city. \nNew York City is home to over 1\,300 native plants and many other naturalized species that provide ecosystem services including specialized habitat\, food\, and a host of medical and other uses. The grounds of Ridgewood Reservoir\, located in Highland Park\, have been maintained and managed to restore many of the native plant species to this area. The late summer/early fall is an ideal time for plant ID in the Northeast with its abundance of late blooming flowers\, seed/fruit formations\, and early leaf color changes. \nDuring this ~1 hour walk\, Caitlin will teach about common and scientific plant names\, how to identify certain species\, their characteristics\, their family relationships\, their uses (ecological and social) and some botanic terms. The tour will include weedy plants\, herbaceous plants\, flowering plants\, trees\, grasses and common invasives. Participants are encouraged to contribute knowledge\, ask questions and store their observations in their plant ID app of choice. The tour route will include the West Causeway and other park areas. \nAppropriate for all ages and all levels. Event is rain or shine but may be rescheduled in the case of storm conditions.
