The Friends of WNYC Transmitter Park Present: Programming from the Germination Station

Join us for a FREE 2-part Program that focuses on the Wildlife of New York City. Artist and Urban Naturalist, Ken Chaya will present on-site talk in WNYC Transmitter Park that will be preceded with an information zoom talk. Join us for both or select one or the other!

Part 2 onsite in WNYC Transmitter Park focuses on a more local examination of the flora and fauna found in the park. Don’t forget your binoculars if you have them, although not mandatory. Magnifying glasses will be available for insect inspection.

Ken Chaya is an New York City based artist and urban naturalist. He designed Central Park Entire, the illustrated map and app documenting the park’s magnificent landscape and nearly twenty thousand individual trees found there. Ken teaches nature courses at the New York Botanical Garden, where he assisted in the creation of the Urban Naturalist Certificate degree program. He is a section leader for the annual Central Park Christmas Bird Count for NYC Audubon. Ken is the past President of The Linnaean Society of New York.

The Germination Station is sponsored by the Friends of WNYC Transmitter Park. Inspiration for this forum is inspired by the Park’s namesake and historic legacy of public radio broadcasting. Add to this the creation of a community for the expression of ideas and support for public green space.
