2026 Street Works Earth

Join us for a joyful street arts and climate action festival in Jackson Heights! We’re bringing together artists, neighbors, and changemakers to co-create art, share stories, and learn about how we can care for our planet and each other. Expect a day of hands-on art-making, creative collaboration, and conversations about the climate justice issues shaping our city. You’ll also get connected to folks working year-round to make NYC a more climate-forward, just place to live. Learn more here, and check out pictures from 2025! https://www.street-work.org/earth-fest-about New: Sustainable Fashion Designer of the Year Awards We’re bringing a fashion competition to 2026 Street Works Earth to celebrate designers, artists, and neighbors creating outfits that show how care for people, communities, and the planet can be gorgeous and inventive. Fashion designers at any level — self-taught, students, emerging, or established — are welcome to submit one original sustainable outfit. Designers must be available in person at the festival to present their work (exact day to be confirmed.) Register first, before submitting a design, by June 26th. Learn more about the competition, including sustainability guidelines, here. https://www.street-work.org/thread-lightly If you have any questions let us know! anjali@makejusticenormal.org.
