The setting does the work: a small lawn running down to the Narrows, container ships passing under the Verrazzano, and an 18th-century cottage behind you that happens to be one of the few museums in the country dedicated to a woman photographer. It is free and it is an hour, so it costs you a Saturday morning and nothing else.

What to expect

One hour, outdoors on grass, gentle pace. Bring your own mat. Weather-dependent, as with any lawn programme.

Good to know

  • Registration is required even though the session is free.
  • 8:00 AM start — early, but it leaves the whole Saturday intact.
  • Staten Island Ferry then the S51 bus, or a short drive from the ferry terminal.
