The Fairy Rings: Gathering Series is coordinated by artist Jan Mun in partnership with Newtown Creek Alliance. The series engages visiting environmental experts in conversation with local stewards focused on Soil, Water, and Air, in the context of Newtown Creek and its surrounding area.
Our next event is focused on AIR issues, Lael Goodman/North Brooklyn Neighbors, Michael Heimbinder/HabitatMap, Judith T. Zelikoff/NYU Grossman School of Medicine will share their experience with air quality monitoring and mitigation around Newtown Creek, Meeker Ave Plumes, and elsewhere. We will identify some best practices to create awareness and advocacy to share around air quality issues.
Participants will also have an opportunity to borrow an AirBeam monitor for personal use. Homemade mushroom soup will be served. The event is free to attend, but space is limited.
