Open the Bergen Arches Fundraiser
Thursday, May 9, 2019
5:00 PM – 10:00 PM Description of Event:
The Journal Square Community Association will be hosting a fundraiser at the Landmark Loew’s Jersey Theater on Thursday, May 9, 2019, from 5:00 PM to 10:00 PM.
The event will feature an Afro-Cuban jazz performance by Eldad Tarmu, appearances by prominent public figures including Mayor Steven M. Fulop, spoken word performances by Ben “Broken English” Figueroa, a silent art auction, and an optional (for $10 extra) catered pre-show happy hour – all with the goal of raising money to help convert the mile-long stretch of unused railway, known as the Bergen Arches/Erie Cut, into a park rivaling New York’s Highline.
