Jazz Age Lawn Party: A Master Composter Volunteer Activity
About this Event

Help educate event-goers with how to correctly compost and recycle their materials to make the Jazz Age Lawn Party a zero waste event. You will be stationed at the recycling stations and help keep the waste streams well sorted. No prior knowledge necessary. There will be gloves, aprons, and pickers for you. Come dressed up like the 20's, if you want. It is a fun event.

Earth Matter staff will meet you by the Governors Island ferry building, located at 10 South Street in Lower Manhattan at 11:45am for the 12pm ferry. You will finish on the Island around 5pm.

Event led by Earth Matter NY.

Registration is required to participate in this event. Please make sure to use the same name and email for all Master Composter Certificate Course events.
