Central Park Ice Festival

February 9, 2017 by Rachel Witzel

 

Central Park Ice Festival

 

This is way out of the hood but worth the subway ride or taxi ride to Central Park. This Valentine’s weekend, celebrate your love of Central Park’s sculptures at Central Park Conservancy’s sixth annual Ice Festival. Guests will witness ice-carving artists  use electric chain saws, chisels, and picks to create a beautiful 6,000 pound ice sculpture of one of New York’s most beloved statues.

As night, there are colorful lights around and the mall becomes a vibrant silent disco with live DJs  to celebrate the Central Park Conservancy’s preservation efforts.

Date: Saturday, February 11th [Read more…] about Central Park Ice Festival

Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 yea Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 years of calling NYC home. A year later, our family is on a crazy career adventure in Miami, with a lot of unknowns. 

But, we do know that we only get one life to live and jumping in feet first is the only way to live life to the fullest, at least in our minds 😂. 

We are already in love with the Miami weather, the happy people, the gorgeous beaches 🏝 and the day tripping way of life. We arrived in FL w a suitcase each and a mask 😷. Happy that we are surrounded by mask-wearers. Wasn’t sure what to expect. But, we will be back in NYC this summer. Lots of decisions to make between now and then. But also lots of fun and exploring over the next few months. 

The silver lining of the Covid world we live in is remote learning allows us to travel and say yes to new beginnings. Stay tuned for updates on the next chapter for our website, too.
