Storytime, Yoga, and Art at Henry Bear’s Park on Saturday

2 Mindful Girls is partnering with Henry Bear’s Park in Hood Park! They are kicking off the partnership with a magical morning of movement, imagination, and creativity! This special Storytime + Kids Yoga + Art Project event on Saturday is perfect for a summer day. They hope to do this monthly with different themes, so go check it out and let them know how you like it!

They’ll start with a read-aloud of Ava’s children’s book, Renee Finds Her Calm (discounted copies will be available for purchase at the event), followed by a playful and gentle yoga session designed for young bodies and minds. After stretching and moving, children will get to express themselves through a simple, story-themed art project to take home.

Hosted in the cozy and creative space of Henry Bear’s Park, this event is free and best suited for ages 3-10. Mats are provided, but feel free to bring your own! Registration is only $10 and for a second child it is an additional $5.

Check out the new art installation: Bridge of Joy

Experience the Bridge of Joy, a public art installation bringing large, joyful sculptures to Charlestown.

Installed to connect both sides of the Tobin Bridge—long a dividing line within the neighborhood—these three bronze works by internationally renowned artists Gillie and Marc were created to surprise, delight, and symbolically deepen Charlestown’s connection to the Navy Yard, and to each other as a community.

This project is presented by Navy Yard Garden & Art, with generous support from community sponsors and civic partners. Read all about it here!
