All events are free and op en to the public and will include time for a Q&A and discussion. Stay tune d on social media and/or sign up for our mailing list at riversideparknyc. org for dates and details. \nAbout the Event: \nJoin Nando Rodriguez\, one of the co-creators of the Hot Box Composting system\, to learn about how this innovative method for urban composting came to be ' and how his 30+ y ears of experience in environmental education continues to connect youth i n Harlem to the soil hands-on. With a focus in restorative justice\, Nando is working to take local composting to another level of community support and push local representatives to deepen participation in NYC. \nDiscussi on and questions are enthusiastically encouraged ' bring questions along w ith you! Light snacks and refreshments will be provided. \nNando Rodriguez was born and raised in the Lower East Side and the Dominican Republic. Ra ised in a single-parent household\, his mother raised 6 children (older si sters helped with the little ones) and he was the youngest. His mothers re asoning to send him away for a portion of his life was her fear of Nando f ollowing in the footsteps of his elder brothers\, who were caught between the street life of Alphabet City. Nando spent 5 years in Bonao\, D.R. He a lways felt the need to help others\, especially his peers who were less fo rtunate\, and in D.R. he would create spaces for his peers to play games\, often inviting youth from other communities to join. \nNando eventually r eturned to NYC and enrolled in East Side Community High School. It was the re that he was introduced to Open Road of NY\, as well as The Brotherhood Sister Sol. With Open Road of NY\, Nando started to connect his purpose on Earth with Mother Earth and began to assist Open Road with the developmen t of the HotBox. Nando also worked on green space designing with participa nts of these selected communities using the Participatory Designed process and developing or redesigning green spaces for community engagement. \nWi th The Brotherhood Sister Sol\, Nando continues to empower youth to become leaders in their communities. Through love\, support\, resources and guid ance\, The Brotherhood Sister Sol team is able to create a Rites of Passag e experience for all youth to question whats not clear to them and speak u p when they feel their voice is not being heard. \nInstagram: @HotBox.Comp osting URL:https://riversideparknyc.org/event/rooted-community-lecture-series-hot- box-composting/ LOCATION:102nd Street Field House\, 102nd Street Field House CATEGORIES:Education & Workshops ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://riversideparknyc.org/wp-content/uploads/20 25/02/Untitled-design-18.png END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20240525T130000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20240525T150000 DTSTAMP:20240415T210914Z CREATED:20240415T210914Z LAST-MODIFIED:20240415T210914Z UID:10000344-1716642000-1716649200@riversideparknyc.org SUMMARY:Art en Plein Air DESCRIPTION:An instructor from the Art Students League leads a visual explo ration of our beautiful park.
