Under our NCA tent by the steps of the Nature Walk, visitors will be able to see, learn about, and interact with the marine ecology of Newtown Creek. Here we will be promoting awareness of life under the water’s edge and engaging our local community in thoughtful discovery.

Come see oysters, mussels, crabs, fish, shrimp, plants, and many other marine life forms!

This is a free, drop in program happening twice a week through the month of July.
