The High Line Horticulture Celebration: Nature in the City

Each year, the High Line’s annual month-long horticulture celebration highlights a different aspect of the park’s horticulture and sustainability initiatives. In 2025, Nature in the City explored the relationship between urban life and the natural world, inviting visitors to experience how plants, wildlife, and people coexist within New York City’s evolving ecosystem. The festival branding spanned print, signage, and digital touchpoints, bringing together playful illustration, educational programming, and community engagement across the park.
