SUMMARY:A Persistence of Cormorants Poetry Reading
DESCRIPTION:A Persistence of Cormorants is a summer-long poetry reading series on our shoreline featuring accomplished and exceptional poets from the New York area\, many of who live in Brooklyn. On each of the scheduled Sundays\, from 1:30 to 3:30\, up to four featured poets will read for 10 to 15 minutes each. \nGerry reads poetry at the canal\nThe readings will be followed by open mic time limited to ten readers (one poem no longer than 3 minutes) who have signed up the day of the reading on a first come basis. \nReading will be outdoors at the Gowanus open shoreline and we invite you to engage with the emerging Gowanus Canal habitat as we witness the EPA conduct their SuperFUN/d cleanup program. Event may move to inside the boathouse if it begins to rain or we want to escape the summer heat. If other activity is occurring on the street or esplanade\, event may move inside. \nParticipation is free but we encourage donations to sustain the efforts of the Gowanus Dredgers Canoe Club\, an advocacy stewardship organization who has been representing neighborhood interests for over two decades. \nMay5th: Safia Jama\, Ruh Danon\, Elaine Sexton\, JoAnne McFarland 19th:  Willa Schneberg\, Kristine Esser Slentz\, Silvia Thomas\, John Leo \nJune2nd: Cheryl Fish\, Anton Anton Yakovlev\, Leah Umansky\, KC Trommer 9th: Sarah Arvio\, Dennis Nurkse\, Mervyn Taylor\, Estha Weiner23rd: JoAnna Solifren\, Sara Marron\, Arden Levin\, Jason Koo30th: Scott Hightower\, Sara Sarai\, Bruce Whitacre\, Dan Kaplan \nJuly14th: Broadstone Books: Myra Malkin\, Meredith Trede\, Stephanie Laterza\, Marcia LeBeau21st: Dan Nester\, Carley Moore\, David Francis\, Linda Russo28th: Gerry LaFamina\, Maddy Barnes\, Sara Wallace\, Sarah Gutowski \nAugust4th: John Deming\, Miranda Beeson\, Amy Holman\, Jason Schneiderman11th: Jordan Franklin Matthew Thornburn\, Alex Long\, David Geoff18th: Myra Shapiro\, Richard Levine\, Carl Rosenstock\, Barbara Elovic25th: Linda Lerner\, Linda Kleinbub\, Ron Kolm\, Bill Considine \nSeptember8th: Abigail Welhouse Jiwon Choi\, Austin Alexsis\, Karen Neuberg15th: Michael Broder\, Indran Amirthanayagam\, Erin Lynn\, Amy Lemmon22th: Tina Cane\, Zoe Ryder White\, Caitlin McDonnell\, Denver Butson\, Terence Degnan29th: Neil Shepard\, Hilary Sideris\, Kristina Anderson\, Anthony Cappo \nOctober6th: Lisa Andrews\, Lisa Badner\, Karen Heldebrand\, Grace G13th: Broadstone Books: Susana H Case\, Lynn Mcgee\, Amy Barone\, Margo Stever\, Mary Maloney

SUMMARY:Understanding the NRDA Process - Part Two
DESCRIPTION:As part of the ongoing Superfund cleanup of the Gowanus Canal\, the federal government is required to study the impact of both the historic pollution and its cleanup on natural resources (fish\, wildlife\, air\, water\, etc.) and their uses (everything from habitat to breathing to boating) — and to identify funding and projects that will restore or replace those services. \nIt’s a complicated process — known as the Natural Resources Damages Assessment (and Restoration) — that involves multiple federal agencies\, the companies and state agencies held responsible for the pollution and its cleanup\, and people like us — the community! There’s a lot of jargon\, some very confusing grey areas\, and a lot of formal processes\, too. \nThe federal agencies responsible for the Gowanus Canal NRDA have released their draft plan for how they’ll start their research\, and you can make comments on that plan before June 14. Join us for a hopefully fun evening of learning together what it is\, how it works\, and how you can make an impact on restoration plans for the canal. This is part two\, you can review part one here. \n\nDownload the Gowanus Canal draft assessment plan\nRead more about the NRDA+R process\n\n

SUMMARY:"Broadchannel" by Mia Martelli
DESCRIPTION:“Broadchannel” is a solo by Mia Martelli that visits childhood bedroom performance-making. \nPhoto by Kiana Kodama \nThe early 2000s-era sounds\, drawings\, lighting\, poems\, and unfinished choreographies created in private are put on display and repurposed as a platform for contemporary questions around aging\, spirituality\, and environmental collapse. \nImprovised dances emerge in response to the rhythm\, colors\, and temperatures of the newly subtropical waterways of South Brooklyn and the Rockaway Peninsula. The rapture – dolphins breaching in the Gowanus Canal – and horror – six-foot-wide whirlpools flooding the same neighborhood – serve as non-fiction mythology\, shaking the prospect of building a future in a place surrounded by water. \nRSVP for the performance here. FREE\, donations encouraged.

SUMMARY:Understanding the NRDA Process
DESCRIPTION:As part of the ongoing Superfund cleanup of the Gowanus Canal\, the federal government is required to study the impact of both the historic pollution and its cleanup on natural resources (fish\, wildlife\, air\, water\, etc.) and their uses (everything from habitat to breathing to boating) — and to identify funding and projects that will restore or replace those services. \nIt’s a complicated process — known as the Natural Resources Damages Assessment (and Restoration) — that involves multiple federal agencies\, the companies and state agencies held responsible for the pollution and its cleanup\, and people like us — the community! There’s a lot of jargon\, some very confusing grey areas\, and a lot of formal processes\, too. \nThe federal agencies responsible for the Gowanus Canal NRDA have released their draft plan for how they’ll start their research\, and you can make comments on that plan before April 15. Join us for a hopefully fun evening of learning together what it is\, how it works\, and how you can make an impact on restoration plans for the canal. \n\nDownload the Gowanus Canal draft assessment plan\nRead more about the NRDA+R process\n\n
