“Lost Rivers” Documentary with Ann-Marie Mitroff

March 30, 2018 @ 6:30 pm - 7:30 pm

Join us for a lecture about climate change at the Sarah Lawrence College Center for the Urban River at Beczak. Groundwork will be part of their RiverTalks lecture series.

Lost Rivers examines hidden waterways in cities around the world and introduces us to people dedicated to exploring and exposing them. One of the cities explored is our very own Yonkers, New York!

Ultimately hopeful…LOST RIVERS reminds us of the value of the natural world, suggesting that that world is always just a few feet away, waiting to return. –NOW Toronto
