Cultural Life & Recreation

Being a neighbour to both Englewood and Tenafly Englewood Cliffs residents can enjoy the offerings of thes two towns. Englewood Cliffs offers limited recreational activities

The Bergen Performing Arts Center (bergenpac) offers world class entertainment just around the corner.The Bergen Performing Arts Center (bergenPAC) was conceived in the echoing corridors, empty rehearsal rooms and grand performance hall of the former John Harms Center, which closed to the shock and heartbreak of Bergen County’s large community of culture lovers, families and students. In April 2003, a group of concerned citizens, headed by Englewood resident Frank Huttle III, formed bergenPAC and developed a business plan to forge a true public/private partnership, engaging all sectors of the community and bringing together corporations, governments and residents, each adding the committment and support necessary to revitalize this unique arts center.

The Englewood Library is dedicated to providing information, education, culture and inspiration. The town encourages the community to pursue lifelong learning and the enjoyment of books, programs and resources in a variety of formats.
