This Saturday promises a nostalgia-packed experience with an interactive photographic journey through Wollman Rink's storied history, plus classic treats inspired by the past seven decades.
To celebrate the occasion, there will be a retro-inspired candy bar that takes skaters on a sweet journey through the last seven decades.
