Community
St. Vartan Park Conservancy sees the park community as extending beyond the footprint of the park, into surrounding areas in East Midtown Manhattan. The Conservancy works with organizations and individuals to help champion causes that make the community better for all.
Some of those we work with appear below, with links to their online homes.
