GREENCYCLE SWAP

BRING SOME! TAKE SOME! One man's trash is another man's treasure. Let's recycle, reuse and reduce!

It's not necessary to bring anything to browse the selection.

All remaining items will be donated to local churches, Goodwill, and Vietnam Vets of America.

THINK TANK Meeting for GCEF Proposals
Monday, November 25th, 7-9 PM
Alpha One Labs (657 Meeker Ave, #1L, Kingsland Ave/Sutton St)
Town Square is preparing BK SciART grant proposals for the GCEF fund due Dec 18th. We hope to realize 4 environmental Pop-Up Pavilions with Science and Art interventions: Water, Air, Soil and Energy. These Pavilions will house pop-up science and art exhibits that, in turn, will serve as incubators for a Science and Art Museum here in North Brooklyn. We are looking for help and input from our community. Please join our brainstorming and planning meeting next Monday at Alpha One Labs. Please join the dream!
While not required, RSVPs are greatly apprecated.
