Enough with all the kiddie concerts in the park. There are plenty of child-free adults who live in this neighborhood too. Carroll Gardens is unfortunately turning into Park Slope.
There is no reason why we can't have adult music concerts at night, but someone has to organize them.
Care to do it?
Contact me and I will put you in touch with the Park's department and with the Friends of carroll Park
