Party like a bivalve to help build the world’s first Floating Reef in Red Hook
Here’s your invite to the Infinite Mussel Party
Is there anything better than a warm spring evening on the water? The nonprofit RETI Center is throwing an Infinite Mussel Party on May 4 on its floating eco-barge in the Gowanus Bay Terminal. All are invited for nonstop mollusks, live music, cool beverages and scintillating conversation.
Besides the chance to mingle at one of Brooklyn’s most interesting venues, your attendance will support the world’s first Floating Reef — a living system made of biophilic concrete with renewable energy systems that allow mussels, kelp, oysters, and the long-lost salt marsh to thrive.
The reef is part of the effort to restore Brooklyn’s urban coastline with RETI Center’s partner and sponsor, GBX~ Gowanus Bay Terminal.
