A Little List
Everything for Hoboken parents, in one little list · Aug 8–14
|
| Good morning, Hoboken. The humidity has finally hit that specific, swampy register that turns every stroller commute into a full-body workout. If you are currently debating whether a playground trip is worth the inevitable sweat-drenched meltdown, I promise the shade in Church Square Park is at least marginally better than your own living room. |
In today’s list: | • Grand Street hosts story time | | • Pier 13 wellness event begins | | • Kurt Gardiner gallery reception opens |
