As part of the Queens Museum‘s Community Partnership Exhibition Program series, the Sadhana Coalition of Progressive Hindus presents Sacred Waters: A Collection of Hindu Offerings from Jamaica Bay, a new exhibition that opens today.
The opening reception will be held from 3 to 6 p.m., and features items discovered through Sadhana’s Project Prithvi, a green initiative that aims to honor the Hindu tradition of Ganja puja, which worships the waters, while at the same time promoting contemporary environmental justice. As part of its real-world environmental efforts, Sadhana hosts monthly cleanups of Jamaica Bay.
The exhibit will be on display through September 28.
