Brooklyn Greenway Initiative is throwing a party dubbed "Making Way for the Greenway” to celebrate the progress that has been made in the past year and exciting developments ahead. Prepare yourself for an evening of unusual entertainments and merriment while supporting one of the leading sustainable projects in New York City.

Join supporters and friends of the Greenway for an evening of music and program shorts from some of Galapagos’ fabulous resident artists! Proceeds support the development of the Brooklyn Waterfront Greenway, a 14-mile off-street bike and pedestrian route that will connect Brooklyn’s parks, neighborhoods and people. Galapagos is located midway along the planned route, so it’s the perfect place for a celebration of recent milestones. Matt Wasowski, founder and Big Boss of Nerd Nite will give a 10 minute presentation about the Coney Island hot dog eating contest and the fascinating world of competitive eating.
