SUMMARY:Woodworking Workshop (Red Hook)
DESCRIPTION:This event was rescheduled from September 25th due to the fire at BWAC.  This event now takes place at the Red Hook Art Project \n*** \nWorking with Repurposed Wood \nThis workshop\, taught by Ryan Frank\, will be a hands-on introduction to woodworking taught using repurposed wood found on the streets and waterfront of Brooklyn. Attendees will learn practical woodworking skills using hand tools\, working with wood pieces found in nature (i.e. driftwood) and repurposed after human use (i.e. discarded furniture).

They will also learn about the material makeup of wood and how its lifecycle from nature to man made objects relates to environmental science and climate change. During the course of the workshop participants will create a unique wood sculpture that they’ll be able to take with them at the end of the class. \nRyan Frank is a visual artist and woodworker based in Brooklyn\, NY. He’s had solo exhibitions at the Invisible Dog Art Center\, the Mattatuck Museum\, the Children’s Museum of the Arts\, the Lilac Preservation Project\, Tremaine Gallery and Icehouse Project Space.

SUMMARY:Forest in Flux: Climate Clues from the Temperate Woods (Brower Park Library)
DESCRIPTION:Step into the temperate forest and discover how animals rely on nature’s seasonal signals to survive—and how climate change is throwing off the timing. Through hands-on exploration and storytelling\, we’ll uncover the hidden connections between climate\, trees\, and the creatures who call the forest home. Just like the plants and animals we’ll observe\, we shall adapt to the weather as needed. \nKate (she/her) is an early childhood educator and a planetarium pilot at the American Museum of Natural History where she teaches children everything from the wonders of our very large universe to the joy found in the smallest of insects. Her favorite creature is her cat\, Vera—who is made of stardust and judgment.

SUMMARY:Climate Café: The Double Edge of AI and Data Farms (Central Library)
DESCRIPTION:Are you worried or concerned about climate change? Does the climate crisis make you anxious? Want to take local climate action but don’t know how or where? \nJoin our Climate Café at Brooklyn Public Library (BPL) to discuss everything related to the climate crisis (including how it makes you feel). Whether you’re a concerned New Yorker\, an activist\, or just curious about the topic\, this community-organized space is for you. According to Force of Nature\, as 70% of young people feel climate anxiety and 56% believe humanity is doomed\, we urgently need spaces to navigate our climate emotions and translate them into action. \nCome and have open and meaningful conversations about the climate crisis\, share your ideas\, listen to inspiring talks\, learn about local initiatives and emotional resilience tools\, and connect with like-minded individuals. Join us to become a part of a network of thousands of activists and concerned individuals through climate cafés worldwide. \nThe 2025 BPL Climate Café Series intends to focus on linking climate concern and anxiety to local action\, exploring technologies\, innovations and initiatives for climate action in the broad sense. Please join us for the Fall Session: The Double Edge of AI and Data Farms. Digital footprint vs Climate Solutions. What is the environmental impact of AI and data farms? Could AI technology help combat climate change? \nRegistration is strongly encouraged but not required.
