Be part of Fall of Freedom & May Day Strong.

Prospect Park, BK » May 1st, 2026 » 12pm to 5pm

From ancient rights of spring to the fight for an eight-hour workday May Day has long been a call for a General Strike. This Strike Picnic weaves celebration, art and resistance together while providing a landing pad for striking workers and students.

A joyful "moving garden" procession will arrive from Kensington, Brooklyn followed by an interactive installation of protest art, oversized handmade flowers, giant monarch butterfly puppets and bountiful picnics in Prospect Park.

Bring a flower, (Here’s a DIY video and inspiration https://youtu.be/KsOmJAWbezs?si=vM-bkHtqSRhD5T5X), food to share, instruments and games.

Let's gather and grow something new!
