Central Park Walking Tour

Join us for a walking tour of Central Park in support of One World Project, lead by historian Stephen Petrus. Stephen is the Director of Public History Programs at LaGuardia and Wagner Archives at LaGuardia Community College. He is a twentieth-century U.S. urban and cultural historian who has led more than 1,000 historical walking tours of New York City neighborhoods and parks.

Since the 1860s Central Park has acted as the “lungs” of the city, providing a refuge from the hustle and bustle of Manhattan for residents and tourists alike. This tour will explore Manhattan’s collective backyard. You will learn about the physical construction of the park, visit the scenic “literary walk,” enjoy the architectural details in the Bethesda Arcade and Terrace, and stroll through the rustic Ramble. Stops also include the Sheep Meadow, Belvedere Castle, Bow Bridge, and Cleopatra’s Needle.

Note: While we love your children, we ask that this event be just for adults only.

If you plan to come, please RSVP here!

The Wonderful World of ¡RAMPAS! ~ One Day Camp

The Wonderful World of ¡RAMPAS! ~ One Day Camp

Our incredible ramp at the entrance to OWP was constructed after a parent in our school community who used a wheelchair was prevented from entering the building for pick-up and drop-off. Noticing the lack of accessibility, the community rallied and raised funds for the construction of a ramp so that our school could be accessible to everyone. Parents and community members who were architects, contractors, and construction workers donated their time and effort to make sure the ramp got built safely and quickly. We hope our ramp helps make everyone feel welcome at OWP.  

In that spirit, please join us on Friday, March 29, for a One Day Camp exploring the Wonderful World of Ramps! We’ll be talking about accessibility, and why the ramp is meaningful to our community. We will also have time to explore our ramp, do some ramp building, and even conduct our own physics experiments.

Cuentos y Canciones

Cuentos y Canciones

Stories and songs - Cuentos y Canciones - serve important purposes for students’ learning and development. They help us have fun and connect with one another, while learning about ourselves and the world around us. They are crucial for our language and communication development, and can serve as powerful vehicles for conversations that require careful thought and consideration.

At OWP, we use stories and songs very intentionally, and thought that sharing some of our favorites with the community would be important.

Our first Cuentos y Canciones is inspired by our anti-bias work and will focus on identity and diversity.

When: March 10th from 10am to noon
What: Read-alouds in Spanish led by Michelle Morales, Nizza Rodriguez and Breanny Sanabia , book-making activities, and a community sing-along led by Jenny Luna + a Spanish book fair by Chau Luna with 10% of proceeds donated back to OWP.  

This event is open to everyone. 

There is a suggested donation of $25 per family.  Like always, any amount is appreciated — please feel free to give more if you are able, and less if you need to.
