Bronx River Art Center is excited to once again work alongside The People’s Money, a participatory budgeting initiative led by the Civic Engagement Commission (CEC) where New Yorkers come together to decide how public funds are invested in their communities.
This initiative gives all New Yorkers ages 11 and up — regardless of immigration status — the power to decide how to spend part of the city budget right here in The Bronx. Through this process, residents can help fund creative, community-based projects that make our borough stronger, more vibrant, and more connected.
At these idea generation workshops, Bronx residents will brainstorm ideas for projects they want to see funded in their community. Your participation will directly shape which ideas move forward to become proposals on next year’s ballot — and by taking part, you’ll also help BRAC receive supportive funding through The People’s Money.
Participants can attend any session. All sessions will have free food and refreshments, including hot cocoa and donuts, as well as a raffle for a free BRAC art workshop or class.
