Council District 3 Participatory Budgeting Kick-Off: Tuesday, November 10, 6pm at the Stonewall National Monument Visitor Center (51 Christopher St. btw. Seventh Ave. South & Waverly Pl. ) | Got a kick out of participating in the November 3 General Election and looking for a way to extend the democratic process experience? If you’re a NYC Council District 3 resident, then your Council Member—Carl Wilson—has the event for you! Taking place November 10 at the Stonewall National Monument Visitor Center, this Kick-Off event introduces the public to the new round of Participatory Budgeting (PB). This citizen-driven annual happening lets the public help decide how money put aside from D3’s Discretionary Budget (normally around $1 million) will be used to fund works that benefit the public (think schools, parks, libraries, public housing, streets, etc.). The handful of finalists from this and other brainstorming sessions make it onto a Spring 2027 ballot whose top winners get funding drawn from the bountiful PB booty!

Chelsea in 10,000 Steps: A Neighborhood Walking Tour: Saturday, November 14, 10am | Mamso and Sushil are relative newcomers to the neighborhood—but their bipedal excursions into the area have given them a host of fun facts and intreresting observations about the area. They’ve distilled that well-earned knowledge into a healthy weekend activity—hence the title of this upcomig guided tour that’s good for the brain, heart, and feet. See the below flyer for more info.
