Thank you for celebrating Flushing Waterways!

Hi everyone,

Thanks so much for coming to SaturBAY! We appreciate you for making it out to Flushing Bay despite the rain and wind, and we are always grateful to our community's dedication for showing up and celebrating our waterways.

Shoutout to Nhà Mình, Dosa Hut, and Le Petit Paris for the delicious food. Thank you to our sponsors at Barretto Consulting, Hoi Polloi, Thread Collective, Le Petit Paris, Biohabitats and NY Presbyterian for making the event possible. And thank you to folks for joining our walking tour, running in the Queens Distance Runners' Fun Run, and painting our historic stream!

If you haven't yet, please consider donating to Guardians of Flushing Bay to ensure that Flushing Waterways is clean and equitably accessible. A donation of $5 or $5000 goes a long way to achieving our vision!

Our auction for original artwork by DSNY artist-in-residence sTo Len is also ending this week—this is your last chance to get a one-of-a-kind print spotlighting the connection between the cleanliness of our roads to that of our waterways! Check out the auction page to learn more.

With gratitude and appreciation,

Rebecca + Rachel (on behalf of the GoFB Team)
