Participating site venues will include local businesses, stores, galleries, Paramount Center for the Arts, the Peekskill train station, waterfront, parks and vacant lots around the city all connected with free public transportation for the duration of the opening weekend.

Visitors can explore the city in a way that they have never encountered before. The artists will draw attention to many overlooked sites by producing imaginative art installations or memorable interactive performances to energize the fascinating city of Peekskill.
