Create art with Sandy memories for your block

  • Pier 11, Atlantic Basin Clinton Wharf Brooklyn, NY 11231 USA (map)

Wed 10/26/22, 5-8pm, rain date Friday 10/28/22, not Thursday because the Justice Center has a Halloween event.

The Red Hook community is invited to come to our ship MARY A. WHALEN and make art related to Sandy and turn that art into Sandy high water mark signs for where you live. We then laminate that art to make a sign that you hang on your block to communicate your Sandy story to your neighbors.

PortSide will provide paper and art supplies, and Red Hook Sandy flood maps by Jim McManon. We will photograph your work and put it in our virtual museum www.redhookwaterstories.org (if you agree) and then laminate it for you to take. You then hang it on your block with a copy of the Sandy flood map. Postcards wtih resiliency info are also available. Snacks provided.
