TRENTON, NJ-- We Are Building Open Opportunity Structures Together (We Are BOOST) and the New Jersey chapter of the U.S. Green Building Council, New Jersey Chapter, are hosting a Lawn and Garden Party Saturday, September 13th, from 3pm until dusk, at 2320 Stuyvesant Avenue in Trenton's scenic West Ward.
There will be presentations by featured guests and representatives from the sponsoring organizations, great food, and music. This event is a family affair, and the sponsors encourage parents to bring their children along.
The festivities will feature presentations by architect and indoor air quality expert Anastasia Harrison, AIA, LEED-AP, IAQA; Barbara Stange, owner of Simply Natural Living; and Tim Razzaq, founder and executive director of BOOST. Sculptor Peter Abrams, of Modern Metal Work, will unveil his latest work, made entirely of recycled materials. The Dominique DeFranco Trio will perform, providing a jazz-filled backdrop in which visitors can meet and talk with the presenters and sample vegetarian cuisine prepared by GreenLight 2-Day.
Anastasia Harrison is the first LEED-AP architect in New Jersey to earn an indoor air quality certification from the Indoor Air Quality Association. She will present an overview of a ten-part workshop series she has developed exclusively for BOOST, outlining such topics as "Living Healthier Starting Today," "From Recycling to FreeCycling," "Babies: What You Put On Goes In" and "Green Renovations and Fix-ups."
Peter Abrams' Modern Metal Work is a Trenton-based company, creating art out of recycled items such as elevator cable wire and various metals. Modern Metal Work also hosts an apprentice program in which students can learn about architecture and metalworking.
