Welcome to
Children’s Focus where culture, the arts and families
connect!
Growing up in New York City, I thought I was very lucky to
have my own backyard. Of course, I had to share Central
Park with hundreds of other people but hey, that was part
of the fun. I just loved the park, and looked forward to
trips to my favorite hiding place, my favorite rock and
playground. What more could you ask for on a beautiful
summer day! Today life is not always simple but I see New
Yorkers have that same feeling of joy and freedom as soon
as the first beautiful summer day appears. Sometimes we
start celebrating the season before the weather changes
like wearing shorts and sleeveless shirts on some very cool
days. Sometimes I have to smile when I see birthday parties
being celebrated in the park or like the other day when I
watched a mother open a folding table on the sidewalk next
to her stoop and serve dinner to her children. New York
loves the outdoors, and there are plenty of activities to
keep us busy outside this summer. Don't forgetto check outWhat’s Happening NYfor the best in cultural events.
Congratulations to all the graduates! May success and joy
always be in your future.
