Arts East River Waterfront

Arts East River Waterfront

Jennifer Monson and iLAND Work with LMCC

Beginning this summer Jennifer Monson will be partnering with LMCC’s Arts East River Waterfront to inspire the local public in the LES East River Waterfront neighborhood around Piers 42 and 35 by connecting them to artists, new ideas and perspectives, and other art-lovers to demonstrate the role that artists play in creating vibrant, sustainable communities.
 
Building upon years of community advocacy and interest in the development of these new waterfront sites as an amenity for local residents, LMCC seeks to model arts and cultural activities that respond to the unique features of these sites, and reflect the needs, interests and history of the neighborhood –taking into account community priorities for the waterfront that range from leisure uses to resiliency planning in the wake of Super Storm Sandy.
