As we’re writing this, it’s one of the nicer days we’ve had so far this year: we stepped outside earlier and marveled at the direct sunshine from a high-in-the-sky sun, and the Vitamin D that flooded our body seemed to wash away a depression we hadn’t realized was (apparently) seasonally induced. Hey, where did all of these beautiful people walking around come from? Have they been in New York all this time? Now we’re sitting at our desk, stealing wistful glances at the windows and the sunlight beyond, settling back into controlled-temperature melancholy. Our point: there’s nothing finer than being outside when the weather’s warm, which is why we compiled this list of 50 awesome outdoor events in Brooklyn you can attend before August ends and we all revert to September sorrow.
