Montague Street goes car-free for activities, music, pop-ups, shopping, dining and neighborhood fun.
Come for the program. Stay for everything else you discover—including people you didn’t know you wanted to meet.
We’re teaming up with Brooklyn Bridge Parents for an afternoon packed with 40+ activities, including sports, live performances, STEM, card trading, crafts, face painting, martial arts, the Free Art Dude and plenty of back to school fun for Brooklyn families.
Back by popular demand, The Free Art Dude is bringing his walking museum back to Montague Street. He will roam Montague Street handing out free postcard reproductions of famous works of art, along with fun facts and stories behind the masterpieces. Find him, get some art, learn something cool.
