Last week, LICP debuted our latest public art installation, "Lumina Arcana," which features two large neon-light-clad pergolas on Vernon Boulevard. In celebration of #PrideMonth, the installation’s lights were programmed to display a rainbow of colors! 🌈 A special thank you to artist Kenny Greenberg, the NYC Department of Small Business Services, the NYC Department of Parks & Recreation, the New York City Department of Transportation, Con Edison, and Boyce Technologies, Inc. for help with the project! Thank you also to Malai, Safir Mediterranean, all of our speakers and partners at the event, and to everyone who came for the drag performance and story hour. Make sure to come back and check out the installation at night to see it all lit up! 💡 📷 Reiko Yoo View more photos here: https://lnkd.in/ep99h_ts

From political and social issues in the workplace, to the Federal Trade Commission’s ban on non-compete agreements, employers—and their CEOs and owners—are dealing with a rapidly changing employment environment. How do we make sense of it all? In this next Long Island City Partnership (LICP) Talks Labor & Employment session, Domenique Moran will discuss what is keeping CEOs awake at night and how to mitigate risks.

Excited to announce the next step in my career! Today was my first day with the Long Island City Partnership as the Business Improvement District Retail Support & Operations Manager. Growing up on Long Island, I remember taking the LIRR into the city and seeing One Court Square towering over Long Island City just before entering the tunnel to Penn Station. Today, I look down from my block in Astoria to see how much Long Island City has changed since I was a kid. To be a part of its continued growth is a full circle moment for me and I am excited to see what the future brings. 

🔴🟡🔵 LIC Partnership’s signature street festival and block party, #LICSprings, returns Saturday, May 18, featuring 130 local businesses and organizations of all kinds. The free event along Vernon Boulevard is back — bigger, better, and drier than ever! Thank you to Council Member Julie Won for funding this event and our annual sponsors for supporting all that we do. Find out more and view participating businesses here: https://lnkd.in/d63qvxjc
