Stop the closure! Press Conference & Block Party for Fort Washington Collegiate Church

🗓️ May 8 @ 6-7pm
📍 Fort Washington Collegiate Church

@savefwcc: “For over a century, Fort Washington Collegiate Church has served the uptown community as more than just a house of worship. Ft. Washington is a beacon of light, a collective gathering point, and an anchor for numerous programs serving our Washington Heights and uptown community. The closure on June 30, 2025, will force Ft. Washington and the programs that call this place home to shutter their doors, leaving a massive void in our communal social fabric. Speakers include: Robert Jackson, State Senator • Carmen De La Rosa, NYC Councilmember • Al Taylor, NY Assembly member”

Robert Jackson, State Senator • Carmen De La Rosa, NYC Councilmember • Al Taylor, NY Assembly member • coalition speakers”
