Description

Under the sea of jet skis, ferries, and booze cruises whipping around New York's waterways, lies a diverse ecosystem of marine life. Back on land, Tanasia Swift works with schools and communities across the city to keep up with the creatures of the New York deep. Each year, Tanasia and her team at the Billion Oyster Project lead the Great Fish Count as part of the World Science Festival, numbering fish and inspiring New Yorkers to see their Harbor in a new light. This summer, producer Reva Goldberg joined the team at Bush Terminal Park, as they tallied 275 living creatures, spanning 26 different species, and hit a five-year high for winter flounder. • https://www.bricartsmedia.org/brooklyn-usa
