Urban Cowpoke Roundup!

This program will be in person at Allerton Library.

Former Urban Park Ranger Hopalong Andrew celebrates the richness of city life — the energy, diversity, and sense of possibility — with this highly interactive program that captures the fun-loving “can-do” spirit of the American West. This program is filled with music and movement celebrating New York City life and urban wildlife: nature, history, parks, people, and, of course, Urban Cowpokes! Whimsical and musical, fun for parents and grandparents who will love the playful lyrics and citified homages to the classic cowboy songs of the silver screen, along with energetic lasso demonstrations and hijinks!

Presented by Hopalong Andrew
