SUMMARY:The Climate Warriors Puppet Show (Central Library)
DESCRIPTION:Inspirational stories from around the world about how little kids have tried to make the earth more beautiful\, safe and sustainable. \nGiven the importance of youngsters to be part of the discussion on climate change\, we have developed a puppet show for children to learn how they can take action to help save Planet Earth. The story captures the journey of three inspirational children located different parts of the world\, who join forces to take action and make a change so as to inspire their parents\, friends and everyone around them to save Planet Earth. These youngsters are brave\, knowledgeable and environmentally responsible. This show will empower your children to understand the importance of climate change and what they can do to help reverse the climate crisis. \nThe show ends in a pledge that the kids take to give back to mother earth. \nThis puppet show has been produced in partnership with The Culture Tree and WonderSpark Puppets \n\nEvents for Youth & Families programs are made possible through generous support from the Estate of Pearl S. Reuillard in memory of her parents Yetta and Louis Schwartz.

SUMMARY:Volunteer Workday: 400 Montauk Community Garden
DESCRIPTION:Join hands with community gardeners and GreenThumb staff for a volunteer workday at 400 Montauk Community Garden! \nGreenThumb community gardens are developed\, led\, and cared for by dedicated volunteer gardeners who critically upkeep them as public green spaces. 400 Montauk Community Garden was first established in 1986 and ran by staples in the community seeking to grow their own food and connect with each other. This principle still holds true today\, as 400 Montauk Community Garden seeks to have more volunteers and members of the space to continue a legacy of learning how to grow your own food\, have access to fresh vegetables and remain connected to their roots. \nAre you new to community gardening? This is a great opportunity to practice garden design skills\, meet the gardeners\, and learn how to join a community garden. Volunteers will work alongside gardeners and GreenThumb staff preparing the site for new raised beds by disassembling old beds\, leveling the soil\, and cleaning up various debris. \nGloves and tools will be provided. Bring water\, snacks\, and clothes and shoes/boots you don’t mind getting dirty. A portable toilet is onsite. \nLocation:\n400 Montauk Community Garden\n956 New Lots Ave\,\nBrooklyn\, NY 11208 \nJoin us for additional volunteer workdays at this garden on April 6 and April 13. \nPlease follow the email instructions upon registration to ensure you are signed up. \nTo sign up a group of 10 or more volunteers please reach out to kyleen.sanchez@parks.nyc.gov. \nThis event is hosted by NYC Parks GreenThumb. We are proud to be the nation’s largest urban community gardening program\, sustaining over 550 gardens throughout New York City. With GreenThumb’s support\, community gardens are centers of environmental justice\, ensuring that our city is fairer\, safer\, and greener for all. GreenThumb’s events are free and open to the public. \n  \nLocation: 400 Montauk Avenue Block Association\, 956 New Lots Avenue\, Brooklyn. Directions to this location \n\nLocation Details: 400 Montauk Community Garden at 956 New Lots Ave\, Brooklyn\, NY 11208\n\nCost: Free\n\nRegistration: Registration Link\n\nContact Email: kyleen.sanchez@parks.nyc.gov
