Awareness about the Single-Use Plastic Ban
Plastic bags have become a huge problem for our environment and recently the City of Jersey City has passed legislation that will ban single-use plastic bags starting in the Summer of 2019. While we have some time to get ready to shift gears in the way we live our lives, it would probably be good if more of us were in touch with the facts about why this step is so important. This film and discussion event is to provide citizens with a broad context about the importance of recycling plastic items and in particular to generate some momentum for banning single-use plastic bags in Jersey City.
Format for the evening will include some refreshments and then kick off with a presentation by special guest Tim Keating / Earthbilt who has been a long time passionado about all the waste us human beings create on this earth. After we screen the film, we will hear from City Officials about the Single-Use Plastic Bag Ban and the No Straws Campaign, and the evening will end with a Q/A session.

Workshop for Parents: JC Plastic Ban and How to minimize use of Plastic
2019-03-21 11:00 - 12:00 | Zaniac Jersey City, 125 1st Street, Jersey City, NJ, 07302, United States
Workshop for Parents: JC Plastic Ban and How to minimize use of Plastic
We typically use plastics bags for less than 15 minutes before they are discarded. The average American household uses 1,500 bags every year. In landfills, depending on conditions, plastics can last 100,000+ years (!) to break down.
Jersey City will enforce a citywide ban on single-use plastic carry-out bags starting June 28, 2019. As households we can also reduce our use of plastic and find better alternatives.
Don’t know where to start? Join our FREE workshop with Melissa Kozakiewics from the City of Jersey City.
She will talk about the upcoming Plastic Ban, as well as how to minimize use of plastic and finding alternatives to plastic in the daily life.
RSVP is required, register HERE to attend. You can also submit questions ahead of time using the registration form.

Maybe you tried to dive back into your routine but found that things didn’t feel quite right.
This lecture with Meghan Mizrachi is designed to provide clarity on the steps to take after pregnancy, in order to have the confidence to achieve a pain-free lifestyle and reach your fitness goals. She will cover screening for diastasis, the truth about sit-ups, advice about postural behavior, the best exercises for core strengthening, and safe exercise progressions.
The workshop is held at our JC Fitness Fair at City Hall Plaza, Jersey City.

New Jersey Symphony Orchestra Chamber Players: Peter and the Wolf
2019-10-19 14:00 - 16:00 | Margaret Williams Theatre, 2039 JFK Boulevard, Jersey City
New Jersey Symphony Orchestra Chamber Players:
Peter and the Wolf
Saturday, October 19, 2:00 p.m.
Margaret Williams Theatre
Tickets $20, Children under 17: $12
On Saturday, October 19th at 2 pm, NJCU is presenting the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra Chamber Players – performing Peter and the Wolf.
Audiences of all ages will thrill to the adventures of a mischievous boy, hungry wolf, grumpy grandpa, and collection of animal characters in Peter and the Wolf at this New Jersey Symphony Orchestra Chamber Players family concert. In his famous musical fairytale, Prokofiev cleverly matches each character to an instrument and a musical theme so listeners can imagine the exciting tale as it unfolds.
This special arrangement of Prokofiev’s classic tale features the instruments of the woodwind family, combining the same great imagery with a focus on the flute, oboe, clarinet, bassoon and French horn.
Named “a vital, artistically significant musical organization” by The Wall Street Journal, the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra embodies that vitality through its statewide presence and critically acclaimed performances, education partnerships and unparalleled access to music and the Orchestra’s superb musicians.
More information + Tickets: https://www.njcu.edu/community/center-arts/music
The show will be at the main campus, in the Margaret Williams Theatre (2039 JFK Boulevard). Patrons are welcome to arrive early and enjoy interactive music in the lobby — starting around 1:15 pm.
