Exhibit: Battle Pass in Prospect Park

Join Prospect Park Alliance for a special combined event celebrating both history and nature. First, explore the "Battle Pass" exhibit, commemorating the 250th anniversary of the Revolutionary War's Battle of Brooklyn. This replica military installation highlights the pivotal moments when American troops defended against the British forces in August 1776. Learn about this significant battle and the historical importance of Battle Hill, named by landscape architects Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux.

Following the historical exploration, engage with "Pop-Up Audubon" at the LeFrak Center at Lakeside, where knowledgeable naturalists will guide you through the vibrant watercourses of Prospect Park. Activities include examining underwater wildlife with magnifying glasses, family-friendly games and drawing activities during "Stay + Play," hands-on pond discovery and creating nature-inspired art prints, and a guided shoreline exploration with a trash removal initiative to protect the environment. Experience the rich history and natural beauty of Prospect Park with activities for all ages!
