by Amethyst Martinez, April 9, 2026

Excerpt: "Earth Day is on Wednesday, April 22, 2026.

"Car-free Earth Day takes place the following weekend on Saturday, April 25.

"#NewYorkCity shuts down streets across all five boroughs, allowing residents to #walk and #bike while taking advantage of a wide range of events hosted by the Department of Transportation.

"The tradition, which started in 2016, has become a fan-favorite across the city.

" 'Car-Free Earth Day has expanded to locations throughout the five boroughs – connecting #OpenStreets, #plazas, and accessing over 1,000 miles of NYC's #BikeNetwork,' the website says.'

[...]

"On the city's car-free day, public #art installations, musical performances, arts and #crafts and #workshops will all take place."
