Arts on the Trail

The trail is a vibrant backdrop for everything from community murals to yarn-bombing to dance performances.

Arts have always been an integral part of the Friends of Bloomingdale Trail mission. From the early days of community design gatherings, it was implored that the elevated park be a “living work of art.”

Yarningdale

Over the years the trail has hosted local crafters to beautify sections of the trail with the Yarningdale Project.

At Julia de Burgos Park, Colectivo Morivivi, an all-women artist collective from Puerto Rico worked alongside community members of all ages to paint a mural honoring the park’s namesake, the renowned poet Julia de Burgos.

Ghosts of the Trail

We have partnered with arts organizations like FreeStreet Theater to host community-generated ghost stories and with Segundo Ruiz Belvis Cultural Center to provide a wide range of musical performances at sites along the trail.
