About this event
The native rooftop meadow and wildlife habitat located on the banks of Newtown Creek, a federal Superfund site, was created through a close collaboration of private and non-profit entities looking to rewrite the narrative on the possibilities of the cohabitation of ecology and industry. This annual festival aims to bring awareness to Greenpoint’s and the surrounding communities’ long-standing environmental burden and its transition to a cleaner, healthier future as well as the global climate crisis and the potential for local, community-based solutions.
Programming will include:
- Performances & visual arts curated by NOoSPHERE Arts
- Native plant sale and harvested seed giveaway
- Guided green rooftop tours with Alive Structures
- Creekside marine ecology activities
- Family-friendly and educational activities
- Tabling by various community-based organizations
- And more!
We will be announcing additional details soon.
