Perspective
NYC Summer Streets '25
Join us on August 2nd, 9th, and 16th 2025 between 7am-3pm in Manhattan!
Alongside our good friends at Crozier Studio and Maker's Hub, we’re thrilled to announce our participation in Summer Streets 2025, New York City’s iconic open-air festival - with over 22 miles of city streets transformed to celebrate city culture, community and creativity. For the first time ever, New Yorkers will be able to travel the length of Manhattan, from the Brooklyn Bridge to Inwood, on a car-free route.
Part of 'We Outside Summer', an initiative spearheaded by New York City Mayor Eric Adams and New York City Department of Transportation Commissioner Ydanis Rodriguez, Summer Streets features everything from cycling classes and skateboarding workshops, to public art and performance.
"We want New Yorkers to be out in the streets — walking, biking, dancing, and connecting with our neighbors"
DOT Commissioner, Ydanis Rodriquez
Our Vision
Collective Bloom invites visitors to hop on bicycles and work together to spin a giant kinetic flower, as well as add their mark to the main structure with chalk and pencil. Originally conceived for a previous client project, this idea found new life through our collaboration with Crozier Studio. Made from found objects, the piece is both playful and familiar - accessible in every sense, with hand-cycle stations for inclusive participation.
Our team will be on the ground each day, with activities, giveaways, and more, for all ages. Come and experience it for yourself - find us in front of the Seagram Building, at Seagram Plaza between 52nd and 53rd Street, on August 2, 9 and 16.
