No One's Ark: The Most "Biblical" Campaign Never Told
Resurrecting a 270-ton half-sunken ferry into an art & environmental center to restore one of the most polluted waterways in America
PSYCA Connection! Two Comedians Buy A Sunken Ferry...This Time with a Plan
Support pirates for the planet aboard No One's Ark, a non-profit that's transforming a historic ferry into an art and environmental community center to help bring awareness, advocacy, and action for the cleanup of Newtown Creek, the most polluted waterway in the country. The mission for this campaign: to kickstart the initial funding needed to bring the vessel to dry dock for its restoration. This is the catalyst of a larger fundraising effort to return the entire vessel to sea worthy shape.
The Vision
With 4 stories and over 9,000 sq. ft., the ship will serve as a sanctuary for artists, environmentalists, and innovators to come together and find creative solutions for the remediation of the creek.
As always, thank you for reading! We’ll elaborate on this community news and share more next week.
Gratefully, Marissa
