About Us

Wyandanch Plaza Association, Inc. was formed as a charitable corporation in 2016 under New York’s not-for-profit corporation law for the purpose of assisting revitalization efforts being conducted by both private and public organizations within the Hamlet of Wyandanch, NY.

WPA offers programs and events in conjunction with local partners, including arts & culture organizations and others, to encourage Long Island residents to visit the Wyandanch Plaza for the purpose of catalyzing social and economic development through culture and the arts. 

WPA's programs and events enhance the quality of life for residents in this downtown community, as it will help support a strong positive community identity, a sense of place and of pride. 

WPA’s offerings supplement services provided by the Town of Babylon and Suffolk County.
