LUNGS Spring Awakening returns Saturday (tomorow!) with parade and garden festivities

The 13th Annual LUNGS Spring Awakening returns this Saturday (TOMORROW!) after two weather-related delays in recent weeks. Looks like we finally have some sunshine for this.

The neighborhood-wide celebration — hosted by Loisaida United Neighborhood Gardens (LUNGS) — kicks off at noon with a parade starting at El Sol Brillante (522 E. 12th St. between Avenue A and Avenue B). The procession heads east on 12th Street, loops down Avenue C, and makes its way through Tompkins Square Park before exiting at Ninth Street and Avenue B. 

Avenue B will be closed between Seventh Street and 10th Street with events as part of the Open Streets program. 

In addition, you can check out some live music at DeColores Community Yard (311 E. Eighth St. between Avenue B and Avenue C) from 2-6 p.m. Details here
