One. More. Week.
Summer for the City isn't over yet! There's still one more week to experience the Festival Orchestra of Lincoln Center; to encounter a dance company outdoors; to see pioneering musicians; and to dance on the iconic Dance Floor. We can't wait to see you there!

From NewYork-Presbyterian, the Official Hospital of Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts
Summer for the City may be winding down, but there’s still time to enjoy the season—and support your wellbeing in the process.
Whether it’s a walk around the block or a hike in the park, spending time outdoors can boost your mood, improve sleep, and strengthen social connections. “You don’t have to be outside long to experience the positive effects of natural light and a change in the environment,” says Dr. Susan Evans, a clinical psychologist at NewYork-Presbyterian and Weill Cornell Medicine. So, grab a friend, get outside, and enjoy the mind-body benefits of fresh air and movement.
