Join us for open hour evenings to learn about green roofs, local plants, and the Newtown Creek while enjoying the moments before sunset from the iconic rooftop. NCA staff will be on hand to lead guided tours, answer questions about the roofs, provide educational resources on the ecological benefits of green roofs, and talk about all of our Newtown Creek focussed work. Register here.

Join the Newtown Creek Superfund Community Advisory Group for the next monthly meeting with the US EPA to get updates on the investigation and cleanup. Full agenda and details available here: https://newtowncreekcag.org/

It’s spring and Newtown Creek Alliance is hosting a public meeting to discuss ongoing developments/issues around the waterway, NCA programming for 2023, and upcoming volunteer opportunities. There is a lot in store for the coming year, so come socialize with your neighbors, meet new NCA staff, and hear more about ways to get involved in our mission to Restore, Reveal, and Revitalize Newtown Creek.

This is a hybrid event taking place in-person in the Kingsland Wildflowers at Broadway Stages building (limited space) and online via zoom. Please register for either option.

Volunteer event to improve environmental conditions at these sites, while also making them safer and more inviting as green public areas along the shore.
