BROOKLYN, NEW YORK, USA, July 16, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Broadway Stages, Brooklyn’s premier film production studio is thrilled to host the 8th annual Kingsland Wildflowers Festival on Saturday, July 27 from 2 pm to 8 pm at Kingsland Wildflowers at Broadway Stages: 520 Kingsland Avenue, Greenpoint, Brooklyn.

The festival, held in and around the spectacular, one-of-a-kind setting of wildflower meadows stretching over 30,000 square feet across the rooftops of Broadway Stages’ film and television studios, set against the iconic New York City skyline in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, operates in cooperation with Alive Structures, Newtown Creek Alliance, and NOoSPHERE Arts, active partners in the coalition behind Kingsland Wildflowers Green Roof and Community Engagement Center.
