SUMMARY:VAULT|Gowanus : Landscape/Value
DESCRIPTION:KAJE is pleased to present VAULT|Gowanus : Landscape/Value\, a site-responsive performance commission taking place Saturday\, November 22nd at 2 19th Street at 5pm. The performance is programmed as part of a cross-disciplinary presentation by VAULT\, an expansive collaboration led by artists Kevin Hernández Rosa\, Arien Wilkerson\, and Marisa Williamson.\n\n \nThe VAULT project has drawn nearly a decade of inspiration from the shuttered John C. Clark Elementary School in Hartford\, CT\, which closed in 2015 after dangerous levels of carcinogenic PCBs were discovered in its construction materials. With the abandoned school standing to this day as a stark monument to systemic neglect\, racism\, classism\, and the enduring impact of toxic infrastructure on Black and Brown communities\, VAULT moves across varied sites of environmental contention to confront the hidden histories\, and ongoing structural violence that persists in the build geographies we inhabit. Drawing on performance\, mark-making\, and participatory programming\, VAULT embodies a vision for sustaining creative\, cultural\, and spiritual ecologies in the face of fascist\, racist\, and environmental adversities. \n \nVAULT|Gowanus : Landscape/Value\n\nSaturday\, November 22nd at 2 19th Street \nThe performance will begin at 5pm

SUMMARY:Brooklyn Folk Festival: Banjo Toss Competition
DESCRIPTION:Each year\, as part of the Brooklyn Folk Festival \, contestants gather on the banks of the fetid Gowanus Canal to see who can throw a banjo the farthest in the – BANJO TOSS: BANJO THROWING COMPETITION! The special “throwing banjo”\, attached to a rope is tossed into the canal\, a federally designate Super Fund site. The marked rope pays out\, showing how far the banjo has been tossed. It is then hauled back in for the next throw. \nThe Brooklyn Folk Festival is presented each year by the Jalopy Theatre & School of Music\, a grassroots Red Hook\, Brooklyn community space that is a music venue\, music school\, and record label.  We are excited to support the Banjo Toss event activity so please stop by and join the fun! \nWe are told the best preparation for this competition is to attend a show at the Brooklyn Folk Festival so purchase tickets now before they are sold out.  While bearded men and women are growing in popularity as more people live\, work and play in our Gowanus neighborhood\, we are assured by the organizers that beards are optional. Our amazing collection of competitors reinforces the Dredgers theme of inclusion so stop by to cheer our competitors or compete in the toss as well!

SUMMARY:UPDATE: Spooky Shenanigans on the Gowanus Canal - Halloween Parade
DESCRIPTION:Shenanigans will be on-shore tonight as a result of yesterday’s storm. \nHello Intrepid Gowanus Paddler\, \nWe have a different kind of “Boo!” for this Halloween afternoon. Unfortunately\, yesterday’s massive rainstorm — and the subsequent discharge of sewage into the Canal — and today’s extreme wind conditions mean that we are offically deciding that today’s conditions are TOO SCARY to host on-water shenanigans tonight. \nThe good news is: The Ukulele Cabaret and Gowanus Dredgers music community friends will still be hosting a fantastic show at the Boathouse at 7pm. \nWe’d also still love to see you in your Gowanusy costume for some shore-side fun. We’ll set up some DIY photo booth fun and games for those who want to come by anytime after 5pm. Help decorate the boathouse\, hang out with friends\, and crack open a seltzer or a beer to close out the week and the 2025 paddling season. \nLast note: Tomorrow\, we’ll be rolling up our sleeves all day at the Bunker for a season send off and work day. Join us to help with season-end chores\, some fun painting projects\, beginner-friendly dock maintenance\, and maybe a sunset fire pit after the work is done. We’re scheduled to be out there between 10am and 4pm.

SUMMARY:Paddle-In Movies : Creature Feature Weekend!
DESCRIPTION:Join The Gowanus Dredgers for a weekend of Creature Feature paddle-in movies! We’re screening our seasonal favorite\, Creature from the Black Lagoon\, as well as a new-to-us film\, The Beast from 20\,000 Fathoms.

Costumes encouraged! \nIf you’re joining us on shore\, we encourage you to bring a lawn chair or a blanket for seating. We’ll message everyone who has RSVP‘ed with the screening location a few days before the event. \n  \n\n\n\nOctober 24th: Creature from the Black Lagoon \nNear the Arctic Circle researchers detonate a nuclear device and unwittingly thaw a prehistoric beast frozen for millions of years. The monster leaves a path of destruction across eastern North America as it heads straight for New York City.
