There are few statues in New York City as recognizable as Fearless Girl. Since arriving on Wall Street in 2017, the bronze sculpture has become one of the city’s most photographed landmarks, drawing millions of visitors who stop to snap a picture with the determined young girl staring down the heart of the Financial District.
Now, for the first time ever, Fearless Girl is getting a celebration of her own.
On Friday, July 24, Broad Street between Wall Street and Exchange Place will close to traffic for the inaugural Fearless Girl Summer Block Party, a free afternoon event inviting New Yorkers to celebrate what it means to be fearless with music, giveaways, photo opportunities, and plenty of summer treats.
