Welcome to our first ever Animal Crossing: New Leaf Meet-Up post launch!

Animal Crossing New Leaf players can meet up with us at the Wild Garden exhibit at the Charles A. Dana Discovery Center (Central Park New York, NY 10029) on Saturday, June 15th from 11:00 AM to 4:00 AM.



The Wild Garden: Discovering Central Park's Woodlands is a free exhibit at the Charles A. Dana Discovery Center (Central Park New York, NY 10029). The hands-on exhibit illuminates the history, ecology and management of the woodlands, and explores why these landscapes are so essential to the purpose of Central Park. The exhibit includes a digital interactive app highlighting historic photos and revealing hidden features in the woodlands.

The Conservancy offers a series of programs and tools to give Park visitors of all ages a chance to experience Central Park's 80 acres of woodlands in ways never before possible. The Park's three woodlands, the North Woods, the Ramble and the Hallett Nature Sanctuary (closed to the public except through scheduled tours) offer people and wildlife an oasis of nature surrounded by one of the most densely built urban environments in the world. Though they appear natural, the woodlands were designed to provide a rustic escape from urban life.
