Music & crafts for three Saturdays in August!
Join HONK NYC this August for more music and mayhem at Summer Streets, the NYC Department of Transportation's annual street closing that creates an 8 mile long pedestrian mall from Lower Manhattan to Harlem.
Summer Streets enables New Yorkers to experience the splendor that is our metropolis from the literal middle of the open street, encouraging cyclists, runners, and walkers to hit the road!
Starting August 6th, we're presenting six bands over the course of Summer Streets' three Saturdays, and offering HONK NYC Craftivations at the Arts + Crafts Hub on 51st Street.
