2nd Annual Pawsitive Impact Summit

Pawsitive Impact Summit 2026 — Where Brooklyn Shows Up for Community, Creativity, and Our Pets.

Maria Hernandez Park becomes the heartbeat of Bushwick as local businesses, nonprofits, artists and rescue organizations come together for a day built on collaboration, joy, and neighborhood pride — in partnership with Assemblywoman Maritza Davila and proudly art‑sponsored by the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce.

🎸 Live Entertainment That Brings the Energy A full rock band opening the show, stilt walkers towering over the crowd, and break dancers shutting it down — because community deserves a stage.

🎨 Community Art Wall Everyone attending becomes an artist. One giant mural, created together, led by our featured community artist.

📸 Pro Photography & Videography Every smile, every pup, every moment — captured and gifted back to you.

🎁 Giveaways & Surprises All Day From local vendors to rescue partners, the love is overflowing.

🐾 Rescues, Small Businesses & Nonprofits United A celebration of collaboration over competition — the Brooklyn way.

This is more than an event. It’s a movement. A neighborhood choosing connection, creativity, and care.
