About

Friends of Dag Hammarskjold Plaza is a tax-exempt 501(c)(3) nonprofit community organization whose mission is the care, preservation and beautification of Dag Hammarskjold Plaza and its Katharine Hepburn Garden. We also organize and faciliate public events. Bound by the conviction that healthy parks make healthy neighborhoods, we work in voluntary partnership with NYC Parks and Recreation, NYPD  and other city agencies. Membership is open to all who share our commitment to public space regardless of race, color, sex or creed.
