Dear [first-name],

Starting today, you can decide who wins the final award at our Public Space Awards on Thursday, February 29th! Our People’s Choice poll will crown one Public Space Activator and it's up to New Yorkers like you to tell us who should win. Polls are open now! You have until February 25th to vote and tell all your friends to do the same; we'll announce the winner LIVE during the event. How fun is that? Scroll down to learn more about our three fantastic nominees and then cast your vote for 2024’s best Public Space Activator.
