Project NYC and the West 13th Street Alliance continue our work as we come into 2021 and the new opportunities offered by the COVID-19 vaccines and the new administration in Washington. Our Virtual Community Events will continue. But as soon as it is safe, we will all be together again in person, whether at Lenox Health Greenwich Village, Integral Yoga Institute, the Church of the Village or the Center. Let’s all set the intention to come back to “normal” again.
Our founding member organizations are continuing to function and serve virtually as best as possible in these times. You’ll find information and events to participate in by visiting these websites.

Here are our February Virtual Programming Events:

Yoga for Arthritis and Chronic Pain with Ken Stec
Wednesdays at 10 a.m. on February 3, 10, 17 and 24.
Certified in Yoga for Arthritis and as a Yoga Therapist, longtime Integral Yoga teacher Ken Stec will guide you safely in gentle postures geared for chair and standing practice. Rooted in traditional yogic principles encouraging a healthy body and a peaceful mind, postures are presented in light of current scientific research for chronic pain and stress relief. With regular practice, classes are effective in the management of arthritic pain and related symptoms.
Community Gathering
Tuesday, February 23rd 6:30 to 7:30 p.m.
Over the past year, many different people have tuned in to our community gatherings to simply connect, converse, collaborate on our experiences during these times and even complain if we need to! Come join and have a virtual visit with your neighbors from near and far.
