Educators from Living Classrooms and Brooklyn-Curtis Bay Coalition will be providing free environmental education programs for the public at select times on weekends. People of all ages are invited to visit the Center and participate in the programs, even though some programs are geared towards specific ages. You can pre-register for programs by emailing jessica@baybrook.net or you can just walk right in! Currently, we are offering these programs, but keep checking back because we'll hold many more throughout the summer!
