Join the Newtown Creek Alliance (NCA) and the Last Mile Coalition for an exciting walking tour showcasing existing and planned freight infrastructure around the Dutch Kills tributary in Long Island City, Queens. In recent years, mega-warehouses (dubbed ‘last mile’ facilities), have proliferated in industrial areas around Newtown Creek and other neighborhoods of New York City. The rise of e-commerce has seen a rapid increase in last-mile developments in the industrial business zones, like those surrounding Newtown Creek. These mega facilities bring significant amounts of increased truck traffic to overburdened communities leading to higher levels of congestion, worsened air quality, urban heat island impacts, stormwater runoff, as well as ongoing issues with worker protections, fair wagers, and labor rights. NYC is now working to implement a special permit process to curtail the proliferation of last mile facilities, thanks in large part to the advocacy from elected leaders and the Last Mile Coalition (of which NCA is a member). The guided walk will begin at the Hunters Point Avenue 7 train station and head towards the Dutch Kills tributary before ending at the Kingsland Wildflowers green roof, where participants can join in NCA’s weekly Open Hours series to enjoy the sunset from the green roof meadows and redraw our walking path. In total, the walk is approx. 2.25 miles long. We ask that all attendees wear closed toe shoes and be prepared for walking on rugged industrial terrain. This tour is free, space is limited. We ask that attendees fill out a liability waiver and photo consent form prior to joining, found here . This program is made possible through generous support from the NYC Green Fund administered by City Parks Foundation. Information Source: Newtown Creek Alliance | eventbrite

Come join us for a night of good ol' honky tonk music at Gottscheer Hall! Get ready to kick up your boots and dance the night away to the tunes of Emily Nenni and Dylan Earl. It's going to be a night to remember, filled with great music, good vibes, and two-stepping. Don't miss out on this live, in-person event - grab your friends and come on down! Emily Nenni - The singer and guitarist has emerged as one of the freshest and most electrifying voices in Nashville, with a sound rooted in classic honky-tonk and spiked with serious country, soul and rock ‘n’ roll fire, and sweet-and-sassy lyrics that chronicle hard living, hot nights, heartbreak and other universal truths about the human condition. Over the past several years she’s enraptured audiences across Music City with sizzling sets in smoky bars and clubs, honing her command of the stage, perfecting her skills as a band leader and sharpening an already astute world view, all of which are on full display on her newest studio album, Drive & Cry. The record is a marked departure from her previous full-length, 2022’s celebrated On the Ranch. Whereas that effort saw Nenni uproot herself to lend a hand – and write – while assisting at a ranch in southern Colorado, Drive & Cry drops the listener smack in the middle of her boisterous and bustling Nashville world. Nenni will have plenty of opportunities for that in the near future, as she plans to take Drive & Cry on tour, far and wide. Nenni laughs. “So I maybe never thought I’d be a performer, but I sure am glad that I am.” Dylan Earl - Arkansas-based Dylan Earl plays a mix of classic old-time country and melancholic crooner ballads, with an added dose of late '70s country rock. Issuing his debut album, New Country to Be, in 2017, he followed it up with 2019's Squirrel in the Garden and 2023's I Saw the Arkansas. Originally from Lake Charles, Louisiana, Dylan Earl first started writing and playing his own brand of country while at Hendrix College in Conway, Arkansas. Alongside close friend Zac Hale, they started the alternative country-rock outfit Swampbird in 2010, initially playing local shows before branching out across the US and releasing two albums, 2013's On Being Alone and 2015's Something to See. Following the latter’s release, Earl opted to go solo and started playing and recording his own material. In 2017 he issued his debut album, New Country to Be, which saw him playing classic '70s- and ‘80s-sounding country, from mournful ballads to upbeat honky tonk numbers. Tours of the U.S. and U.K. started to follow before he issued his sophomore album, 2019's Squirrel in the Garden. In 2021 Earl teamed up with Dutch alt-country artist Judy Blank for the single "Never Said a Word" before focusing on recording his third album in 2022. In early 2023, after signing to Gar Hole Records , he issued I Saw the Arkansas, before heading out on tour in support of the record across the U.S., U.K., and Europe. ~ Rich Wilson, Rovi Information Source: Hosted by DJ Moonshine & DJ Prison Rodeo | eventbrite
