Citi Summer in the Square Wraps Up

by | Aug 29, 2017 | Culture, Downtown Living

Summer is slowly but officially coming to an end. Labor Day is just a week away and earlier this month, The Union Square Partnership wrapped up its annual Citi Summer in the Square series.

Over the course of the summer, the series presented New Yorkers with more than 135 free programs filled with entertainment, fitness and music in Union Square park every Thursday.

This year’s Citi Summer in the Square offered a sweat-inducing mix of fitness classes each Thursday morning and evening, a rotating, live interactive performance for children, new dueling performance shows featuring beat boxers, DJs, dancers and more, live jazz performances by students from The New School, and two “Throwback Thursday” movie nights in August — “The Karate Kid” on August 3rd, and “Back to the Future” a week later.

The program was presented by Union Square Partnership and had a lot of great sponsors including of course Citibank, as well as Con Edison, Paragon Sports and NYU, to name a few. Check out the full list here.

We can’t wait to see what they come up with next year!
