SUMMARY:Gowanus Wild by Miska Draskoczy
DESCRIPTION:Pho­to­graph by Miska Draskoczy.\n \nA new photography exhibit called “Gowanus Wild” is on display from October 10-November 16\, 2014 at the Ground Floor Gallery in Brooklyn. \nIn the words of artist Miska Draskoczy\,  \n\nSilence. A lack of humans. Light on textured abstraction. Chaotic forms unfolding all around you\, creating a hypnosis of spirit that just might convince you there is a Creator after all. These are the qualities I think of when experiencing ‘wilderness’. And yet the same tingle runs down my spine while wandering the industrial streets of Gowanus\, Brooklyn\, at night. \nI aim to turn concepts of nature photography on their head by finding the beautiful in what most consider to be a man-made environmental catastrophe. The Gowanus Canal is one of the most polluted waterways in the country and the neighborhood has seen continuous industrial use since the 19th century. My vision is to capture a marriage of opposites; the organic in the industrial\, green within blacks and grays\, stillness and peace in urban chaos. \nAs our urban communities grapple with how to connect with the primeval in a world that offers sterile potted plants as an outlet to nature\, I see Gowanus Wild as an urban hiking manual\, a continuation of generations of landscape photography\, updated for our technological age. If only we adjust our perception of what is ‘nature’ and ‘wild’ around us\, a fascinating wilderness can be found in the fringes of our decaying city where nature and chaos conspire to produce a new type of wild beauty. \n\nOn view: October 10-November 9\, 2014. \nREGULAR HOURS: Thursday: 12pm – 6pm\, Friday: 12pm – 6pm\, Saturday: 12pm – 6pm\, Sunday: 11am – 5pm. And by appointment. \nArtist-led Gowanus walking tour: Sunday\, November 9\, 5:00-7:00p.m.  \nGround Floor Gallery\, 343 5th St. Park Slope\, Brooklyn\, www.groundfloorbk.com

Please confirm attendance at enviharlem@gmail.com \nIndoor Container Gardening \nSaturday\, October 11 \nWe invite families\, groups\, or individuals to join us this Saturday to kick off our Fall Workshop Series at Dulce de Harlem\, where we’ll be transplanting plants from the garden to containers\, and taking them indoors for the fall and winter seasons. We invite you to take a plant home with you\, and brighten up your apartment this cold season. We will have plants for you to select from\, herbs or flowers (mint\, mums\, and more!) There will be supplies for you to decorate pots and planters with to add that extra personal touch. \nMake Your Own Pickles (and pickle your veggies!) \nSaturday\, October 18 \nCome join us for our second workshop this fall\, where we will learn about the ancient craft of pickling. Bring your friends\, your favorite veggies\, and a jar if you have one\, and join us in a celebration of fermentation. In this lesson\, we will learn about food preservation and spoilage\, as well as the friendly (and not-so-friendly) bacteria involved in it. We will taste a number of different pickles\, discuss the various ingredients in pickle recipes\, learn about the process of fermentation\, and make some pickles of our own. If you have a vegetable that you’d like to experience pickled\, bring it with you! All necessary supplies will be provided\, although supplemental supplies are appreciated (jars\, vegetables\, utensils\, spices). \nSeed Saving & Pumpkin Carving \nSaturday\, October 25 \nPartake in the annual gardening tradition of Seed Saving with us this this season\, as the garden begins to wind down for the fall and winter. In this workshop\, we will learn all about seeds through various hands-on activities. We will collect seeds from our plants to use next spring\, and make wildflower seed-balls (to be tossed by guerilla gardeners of all ages). We’ll also be carving jack-o-lanterns for this upcoming Halloween. We might even roast some pumpkin seeds as a mid-autumn snack! (Bring your carving tools\, pumpkins will be provided.) \nCompost: A New Beginning \nSaturday\, November 1 \nOur final workshop this season will be all about composting! Save your food scraps and other organic waste\, join us on a compost project at Dulce. We will be building a lasagna garden bed (a garden built out of food scraps)\, in which we will plant some late-season grains and garlic. Next season\, our lasagna bed will be a verdant veggie patch! This session\, we will also explore Dulce de Harlem’s other composting facilities; this is an excellent opportunity to get involved with composting at Dulce\, or learn more about the process. \nFor more info\, visit: www.enviharlem.com \n  \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Hurricane Sandy anniversary planting in the Rockaways
DESCRIPTION:For the two year anniversary of Hurricane Sandy\, Rockaway Waterfront Alliance (RWA) is bringing people of all ages together to create a nature protective buffer for the Rockaway community. \nAs we learned from the storm\, the natural vegetation and dunes that exist off our shores served as a protective buffer to the homes and businesses that exist in these areas.

Students can receive community service hours. No registration is required. This event is rain or shine\, so please dress accordingly. \nSpecial thanks to NY State Department of Environmental Conservation and National Fish & Wildlife Foundation for their support. \nFor more Rockaway Waterfront Alliance events\, visit the organization’s website. \nSource: New York City Parks Department

SUMMARY:Tour: New York City: Capital of the World
DESCRIPTION:Every city is unique\, but what further distinguishes New York from the rest is the profound presence of world trade – more than any other place on earth\, the world trades in New York City. This may be because of natural features so compelling that in the 1790s\, when the city’s population totaled only 25\,000\, George Washington predicted that New York would one day dominate the hemisphere and become\, in his phrase\, “the seat of empire.” Proving our first President right\, New York City has led the nation and the world in the fields of commerce\, culture\, finance\, communications\, politics. Join guide Peter Laskowich for a simple walk through downtown Manhattan we read New York as capital of the world as we discuss big ideas of Wall Street\, Federal Hall\, Ellis Island\, the attacks on 9/11 and our city’s (and indeed the nation’s)\, primary values.

SUMMARY:A Changing Landscape: Public Space and the New Administration
DESCRIPTION:Photo Credit: Barrett Doherty \nIn recent years\, the profession of landscape architecture appears to have taken the lead from urban design\, planning\, and even architecture as the primary generator of public space in New York City. The Bloomberg administration was seen as supportive of design\, focused on new forms of urban space such as bicycle lanes and small private parks integrated into public space. Was public participation left out of the Mayor’s equation? What about the private financing of public spaces? \nFocused on public housing and related initiatives\, Mayor De Blasio’s administration seems to have a different outlook\, perhaps viewing design as more of a middle-class prerogative concentrated in certain areas of the city\, and therefore less of a priority. If so\, what is happening to Bloomberg’s legacy in the design arena? In what is sure to be a lively discussion\, this program will poll several of New York’s landscape design leaders for their opinions on these issues and how they are playing out across the five boroughs. \nPresenters: \nSusannah Drake\, FASLA\, AIA\, Principal\, dlandstudio architecture + landscape architecture PLLC\nGonzalo V. Cruz\, ASLA\, Creative Director\, Landscape Architecture Studio NYC\, AECOM\nAdam Yarinsky\, FAIA\, Principal\, Architecture Research Office \nModerator: William Menking\, Editor-in-Chief\, The Architect’s Newspaper \nOrganized by: AIANY Marketing and Communications Committee \nPrice: Free for AIA members; $10 for non-members \nFor more information\, please visit: http://cfa.aiany.org/

SUMMARY:The Changing Nature of Nature in Cities
DESCRIPTION:From rampant urbanization to the alarming spread of invasive species and the rapidly increasing concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere\, human activities are impacting natural systems on a global scale. Nowhere is the impact of mankind on nature more evident than in cities\, where forests have been razed\, wetlands paved\, shorelines bulwarked\, and nature has been relegated to patches of parkland and isolated remnants of woodlands and wetlands. These urban refuges retain only a fraction of their historic biodiversity\, but they do provide opportunity for the more than 50% of the global population that lives in cities to engage with the wonders and mysteries of nature. The Changing Nature of Nature in Cities symposium will explore the concept of novel ecosystems that are the result of urban development\, and ask if these much-maligned accidents of unbridled growth could ultimately mitigate the impacts of environmental change and re-introduce the wonder of nature in cities. \nSpeakers:\nPeter Del Tredici\, Adjunct Associate Professor of Landscape Architecture\, Harvard School of Design\nRichard J. Hobbs\, School of Plant Biology\, The University of Western Australia\nEmma Marris\, author/journalist\nKate Orff\, Founder of Scape/Landscape Architecture\, and Associate Professor of Architecture at Columbia School of Architecture \nSponsored by: NYBG Humanities Institute \nOrganized by: NYBG Adult Education \nEvent website: http://nybg.org/humanities \nCost: Member\, $10.00; Non-Member: $20.00
