5 Boroughs — 5 Broadways
Join the 2nd Annual Great Broadway Sweep!
Volunteer to help clean up a Broadway near you. Whether it’s the “world’s most famous street” in Manhattan, or a vibrant bustling Broadway in Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens or Staten Island - we invite you to roll up your sleeves and join us during Climate Week.
The action kicked off on Saturday 9/21 in Williamsburg, Brooklyn when the neighborhood came came out to Sweep It Up with Grammy Award winner singer-songwriter and actress Coco Jones. (Check out this music video and you’ll see why we’re such big fans!)
We had a great time on Tuesday 9/24 with TV producer and personality Andy Cohen in Union Square. Cleanup events continue through Sunday 10/6 featuring special guests, live music, activities, and tons of fun.
Whether it’s near your home or work—or you’re up for exploring a new part of the city—you can help make a real impact by joining us for a cleanup.
Registration is open. Sign up to be a vital part of this citywide movement.
