The 8th Annual Tidal Toast
October 23, 2025
7:00 to 10:00 p.m. at 100 Sutton
Tidal Toast is Newtown Creek Alliance’s annual celebration of Newtown Creek! Bringing together community members, local businesses, and long-time champions of the Creek, Tidal Toast is an evening of inspiration and impact.
Join the NCA crew as we look to the future of the Creek and dance the night away. Featuring an exciting silent auction, open bar, dinner, and a shared love of the waterway, join us as we *CHEERS* to the Creek!
We’re thrilled to announce our 2025 Tidal Toast Honorees!
REVITALIZE: El Puente is a human rights institution founded in 1982 with a mission to inspire and nurture leadership for peace and justice. Based in NYC and Puerto Rico with national and international impact, El Puente directly serves approximately 12,000 individuals annually from nine youth Leadership Centers across the Southside of Williamsburg and Bushwick, Brooklyn, and within Rio Piedras, Puerto Rico. El Puente creates community-led movements of self determination among low-income, oppressed peoples, Latine and communities of color through a holistic leadership and membership model, and high impact youth and community development programs.
REVEAL: The Welikia Project aims to illuminate the rich ecological history that underwrites the development of New York City, drawing awareness to how drastically our own neighborhoods have changed over time, and suggesting possible alternative futures. It roots us in place, helps us understand the place we live in, and fosters the long view. The goal of the project is not to go back to the past but rather to go forward into the future, taking on the wisdom and inspiration that nature provides.
RESTORE: Seaweed City is a regenerative urban aquaculture organization with the mission to restore our marine ecosystems, clean our water, and promote community investment in the NYC estuary. As climate change accelerates, seaweed aquaculture is a powerful nature-based solution, improving environmental conditions by serving as marine habitats, providing an alternative to plastic, acting as a storm surge buffer, and aiding in pollution extraction. We aim to create an open-source research and development laboratory for community members, scientists, artists, students, entrepreneurs, and advocates to explore the benefits of seaweed and connect with the local marine environment.
