Conflux 2009

SPECIAL EVENTS

All special evening events are free and open to the public.

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 17
NEW LOCATION! Due to inclement weather, our Public Space Potluck scheduled for Thursday, September 17 in Battery Park has been moved indoors to Conflux Festival headquarters: the East Village’s historic Barney Building located at 34 Stuyvesant Street on the NYU campus.

Join us starting at 6:30pm as we celebrate the start of the Conflux Festival. This is a joint event hosted by the Design Trust for Public Space and Conflux – two eco-minded groups committed to improving, exploring and sustaining New York City’s public spaces.

In the spirit of creative collaboration, we invite you to bring food and drinks to share with your fellow public space explorers for this communal meal in one of New York City’s most beautiful parks. The Design Trust will provide the essentials (plates, napkins, utensils, etc).

Pick up a guide to the festival and meet the presenters, fellow attendees and the Conflux team. All are welcome and the Public Space Potluck is free!
