GOWANUS: COMMUNITY MURAL PROJECT
FILM BIZ RECYCLING is fortunate to see materials we’ve rescued from the landfill used in a variety of inspiring ways. And when it happens in Gowanus, it just brings it all — home.
Check out the amazing project the Gowanus Canal Conservancy has organized. We’re donating as many cans of paint as needed and hope to see you there, brush in hand.
The Details: The Gowanus Canal Conservancy invites you to participate in a community mural-painting project on Sunday, August 21. The project twill explore 3-themes:
Early Industrialization - along the Gowanus
Recent Improvements - to the Gowanus
Future Visions - for a clean and healthy canal.
The Conservancy needs community support to help paint the murals and give form to the concept. Additional projects will take place that day involving garden work and compost turning. If you have any interest in these activities, please contact the Conservancy to sign up for the event at: volunteer@gowanuscanalconservancy.org
