COMMUNITY PROGRAMMING 

The Morris Park Business Improvement District is commited to providing resources and services through our robust events calendar. Our programming is designed to promote the Morris Park commercial corridor by highlighting local businesses, supporting local iniatives and bringing the community together in stewardship. We host over 30 events yearly, and some of our annual events include our community Graduation Ice Cream Party, Joyful Winter Trolley Celebration and Halloween Fest.

In collaboration with city agencies, local community groups and institutions throughout the Bronx, we are at the front line of disseminating important information on relevant local developments and legislation that affects our community members and local businesses. Since the emergence of the COVID-19 epidemic, we also distributed tens of thousands of masks to small businesses employees, organized testing events and provided critical information from City and State agencies.

All our events are non-political, FREE and open to the community!
