Sunday Assembly NYC - EARTH, OUR HOME

Our theme this month is OUR HOME - PLANET EARTH

Our main speaker, Dr Jana Grcevich, will discuss our planet from the eyes of an astrophysicist.

And to tell us about his journey down the road of going green, our very own Jonathan Tobert. He will explain why NYC is not the environmental disaster many people think, but in fact the greenest city in America, and talk about his efforts to be green in the suburbs.

Our host is Raymond Arnold

Music will be Raymond Arnold and Jack Lucentini, as well as the first performance of the Sunday Assembly Choir!
