Please join City as Living Lab (CALL), celebrate the release of Artist Emilio Martínez Poppe's Estamos en el Agua. Estamos en el Agua is a community artwork taking the form of a newspaper. Created as part of City as Living Lab's Water // Ways Cloudburst Initiative, it recounts the stories of Queens residents. It brings together historical maps and practical tools to confront the growing reality of cloudburst-- sudden, intense rainstorms that flood streets and homes.
During Queens Day, CALL will distribute free copies of the newspaper and be collecting flood and water stories from the Queens community to include in future iterations of Estamos en el Agua.
