Join us on a nature tour of the park that will focus on the restored tidal marsh ecosystem, with some ecological history of NYC weaved in. Learn about the great potential these habitats have both as an oasis for migrating birds and also how they serve as buffers from storms and sea level rise, and increase the resiliency of our waterfront and neighborhoods.

Participants will meet at the entrance to Hunter's Point South Park at the intersection of Center Blvd. & Borden Ave. (pin location here) Please make sure you arrive 5-10 minutes before the start time.

Join us for Morning Meditation on the Waterfront Saturdays in September from 9 to 9:30 am near Luminescence (map). This program is presented by Meditation in Queens.

Morning Meditation Blue Sky Mind: Our root mind is naturally light, boundless and deeply peaceful. We imagine our mind is like the vast, clear blue sky and the mental busyness and painful emotions we experience are like clouds. Through training our mind, we allow these clouds to dissolve, revealing the boundless potential within. In just 30 minutes of meditation, we can shape the flow of our entire day. By connecting to our clear sky-link mind and intentionally cultivating inner peace, we can access the best of ourselves and learn to live from this place. While the meditations offered are Buddhist, they appeal to anyone seeking to cultivate a deeper state of inner peace and authentic happiness. No previous experience is necessary. Everyone Welcome. 

Please bring a blanket or mat for sitting meditation. To register for this event please visit: https://checkout.meditationinnewyork.org/blue-sky-mind-queens-in-person/

You’ll discover actionable steps to safeguard its promising future.  The beautiful salt marsh restoration will inspire you as artist Monica Schroeder guides you through watercolor landscapes to make bookmarks from, no matter your artistic skill level. All you need is a love of nature and your curiosity.
