Follow up with Celeste and Jason re: how to publish StoryMap on CAG Website.&nbsp;GRT approved this and Aaron reports that he reached out to Celeste about how to share it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">2. There are other materials including images of the dredged items that could also be shared.&nbsp;We already know these materials can be shared as we shared them at the show last April 2025.&nbsp;Will work with Outreach and GRT to see if we can get some petty cash for printing flyers, images and frames.&nbsp;Em has a bunch of frames and Joan followed up about the size.&nbsp;Size of photos printouts would be 11 x 17.&nbsp;In order to have the 3D items Gowanus Dredgers, Gowanus Canal Conservancy, and John Quadrozzi would have to get on board.&nbsp;Irene will check with Terri Thompson and Joan will follow up with Michael.&nbsp;Just found out from Peter in a separate call (he was in Maryland when we had this meeting) that there is an idea floating around to do a Gowanus exhibit at PowerHouse.&nbsp;Will work with&nbsp;Constanza Valenzuela,<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong>Associate Curator, Powerhouse Arts, Pam W., Curator, and&nbsp;Sasha Fishman, Powerhouse Artist-In-Residence \u201926-\u201927, Columbia Sculpture MFA&nbsp;\u201924,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/sashafishman.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">sashafishman.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">3. Joan reported that Clinton and Union Street library scheduled to open in the fall.&nbsp;Katia reached out to the former manager of the Clinton Street library, Uldis Skrovelis, and he can put us in touch with the Friends of the Carroll Gardens Library.&nbsp;Ginger Gaines is the President of Friends of Carroll Gardens Library.&nbsp;Expectation is that library will open in late November or early December and we could tour.&nbsp;Library should be very interested in the StoryMap.&nbsp;Awaiting info from Aaron as to whether StoryMap can be shared with the Brooklyn Public Library.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">4. Can the StoryMap also be in book form?&nbsp;Aaron to follow up as to whether GRT still has the original draft StoryMap that was much more geared to kids.&nbsp;It would be nice to have both the electronic version and a kids book version.&nbsp;Aaron to follow up to see if Chronicle Heritage can do that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">5. Joan shared her PowerPoint of the graffiti materials.&nbsp;Joan followed up with Celeste in August and again in September.&nbsp;&nbsp;Eventually we want a show at Dredgers with real items dredged and the graffiti materials, but it would be great if we could show the StoryMap, too.&nbsp;Aaron will follow up.&nbsp;If we cannot move all of John Quadrozzi\u2019s items to the location, we could use the photos we have of them already.&nbsp;Michael emailed John.&nbsp;Aaron to find out if we have to move large pieces for a show, whether GRT can pay for a U-Haul.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">6. Discussed how this committee can raise money or can it come from GRT?&nbsp;See Brian Carr\u2019s email below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">7. Jason suggested posters with QR codes and flyers \u2013 can the Trust help?&nbsp;Aaron to check.&nbsp;If we get the flyers, it would be nice to hang in new spaces \u2013 also would be nice to hang images of the dredged items in those spaces.&nbsp;Working with Outreach and Facilitation on this \u2013 what would it cost?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">8. We need to put together proposals for funding \u2013 Event name, Date, Time, need X$ for promotion.&nbsp;Brian Carr emailed (see below) that he would help set up a meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">9. Make sites along the Gowanus into commemorative sites.&nbsp;Eymund suggested at the last meeting that the 1st&nbsp;Street Turning Basin could be named Marylander Park because the Maryland contingent defended the Revolution from the Old Stone House to that site.&nbsp;There is currently a letter of support from Kim at the Old Stone House.&nbsp;It would be tied to the Path of Freedom concept from Old Stone House.&nbsp;Also, the education building we think is planned there could recall Denton\u2019s Mill, which used to sit at the 1st Street Turning Basin. Aaron said that would probably be proposed to the Parks Department and Council Member Hanif.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Email Addenda<\/p>\n<p>Brian Carr<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8211; Forwarded Message &#8212;&#8211;<br \/>\nFrom: Carr, Brian <Carr.Brian@epa.gov><br \/>\nTo: JOAN RODRIGUEZ <jblue406@aol.com><br \/>\nSent: Friday, August 7, 2026 at 10:27:56 AM EDT<br \/>\nSubject: Re: Archeology Committee Meeting Agenda 3\/3\/2025<\/p>\n<p>The Trust is required to do archaeology and preservation related work to conserve and display artifacts, and to make up for impacts to the historic fabric of the canal.<br \/>\nAs EPA has noted, the regulations do not allow us to order the PRPs to create a new museum, but other preservation things short of that are permitted.<br \/>\nHappy to discuss with the committee and the Trust folks at a meeting.<\/p>\n<p>Brian E.
