Summary
"This film highlighted the division's [Dept. of Cultural Affairs] summer and year-round programs of entertainment in streets and parks, as well as its ongoing arts programs. Many of these programs were cut back under the more austere Beame administration that followed, however the film exists as a record of a comparatively short-lived effort to 'cool the streets' in a time of higher incidents of tension and violence." -- Keith Rodan, ExposureRoom website.
