Monthly Water Testing
Year four of Water Justice Lab kicked off on May 20, 2023, with a weekend of orientation to the region’s unique water geography combined with two days of water testing and processing. Visit our main page to learn more about the team working in the lab this year. Across the 2023 season, youth fellows worked to create a series of radio stories with generous support from a Crossfield Collaboration Grant, while our artist resident was support by a Rubin Family Foundation grant. Check out the stories here! This program is made possible through an ongoing collaboration with Riverkeeper‘s water quality monitoring program.
