Fortnite in the Heights
Tax deductible
The Armory Foundation and Silicon Harlem are hosting a community event to give families a unique experience to combine technology, gaming, and fitness. Fortnite in the Heights is an esports styled Battle Royale tournament hosted at the iconic Armory Track and Field Arena in Washington Heights.
If this goal is reached and exceeded, we would be able to provide over 1000 people free admission.
At Silicon Harlem, we believe that everyone deserves a connection and that everything will be connected. The paradox of our interconnected world is the loss of human connection to one another. As we spend more and more of our time online, our society is struggling to redefine our relationship to public spaces and what it means to interact with our friends, neighbors, and loved ones.
The Armory has occupied a central position, geographically, socially, and physically, for the people of Upper Manhattan for many years. Silicon Harlem would like to help the Armory continue to enrich that legacy for the next generation. By leaning in to emerging trends and technologies, we believe we have an opportunity to provide a unique, engaging event for our young people that could scale as well as redefine the arena as a place for young people to congregate, play and learn.
