DUMBO, NY — The Brooklyn Bridge Park will host outdoor movies, kayaking, an Americana music festival and a floating glassmaking workshop as part of their spring and summer series of events, organizers announced. The Brooklyn Bridge Park Conservancy on Monday released their schedule of more than 500 events taking place in the park this year from May to August with concerts, sports clinics, plays and more. “From tennis clinics to ‘Movies With A View’, from kayaking to concerts, we’re keeping the waterfront vibrant by expanding our roster to include new programs, and by bringing back crowd favorites year after year,” Nancy Webster, executive director of the conservancy, said in a statement. The park will kick off their events on May 5 with their annual waterfront kite festival at their Pier 1 Harbor View Lawn. The programming also includes their 19th annual, eight-week film series “Movies With A View” this time highlighting the work of female directors, according to the group. – Brooklyn Heights Patch
