Governors Island has become one of New York’s greatest public spaces. Located just a half-mile from lower Manhattan and Brooklyn, the Island’s historic buildings and harbor views make it an ideal and unique waterfront destination. The Governors Island Alliance (GIA) is working with the National Park Service, the Trust for Governors Island, and a spectrum of arts, culture, and environmental organizations to develop and sustain a public outreach program for Governors Island. A key part of that program is to organize and implement outreach campaigns, events and volunteer opportunities that generate public support for and enhance the visitor experience on the Island.
