THINK TANK Meeting for GCEF Proposals
Weekly Monday evenings, 7-9 PM, Lokal(905 Lorimer St, at Bedford Ave)
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 meetings. Please join the dream!
