| Single Classes for WeBop Jazz Academy |
WeBop is an early-childhood jazz education program for children eight months to five years old. During each 45-minute session
families stomp, strut and swing to the joyous rhythms of jazz as they learn about the core concepts, instruments, and great performers of jazz.
Typically, WeBop is offered on a term by term basis, with eight or four week sessions. However, the program is currently offering single class opportunities for families who want to try out the program or cannot commit to full-term registration. Single class tickets will be available for select sessions at $50 per ticket. You can browse the list of available classes by clicking here.
WeBop is an excellent way to introduce young children to jazz sounds and offer an energetic creative outlet.
Click here for more information about registration and term fees.
*All WeBop classes are child and adult participation classes. WeBop is not a drop-off toddler program.

Gertrude Ederle Recreation Center at

overview of African American history as told through NYC Parks' statues, exhibits, and historical photos and stories. For instance,
before the Civil War (1861-1864), the area now known as the
Martin Luther King Triangle
in the Bronx was the site of two stations on the Underground Railroad. Also, Cedar Park, now known as Cedar Playground, is largely considered the birthplace of modern Hip-Hop, and you can click here to listen to NYC Parks Commissioner Mitchell Silver and DJ Kool Herc talk about this history.
There is so much more information, stories, and facts about Black history in NYC as told through the lens of NYC Parks. Be sure to check it all out.
