If you did­n’t get your fix of music on the Island on Sat­ur­day, you can come back on Sun­day for Make Music New York’s Punk Island. Punk Island will fea­ture stages around the Island (except at Pic­nic Point) with per­for­mances through­out the day. 

And all of this is in addi­tion to all of the out­door and indoor art exhibits, FIG­MEN­T’s minia­ture golf course, car-free bik­ing and pro­grams with the Nation­al Park Ser­vice.
