Join Marshall Brown, Board President &amp; Co-Founder of The Long Island Conservancy, for a presentation on the importance of native plants and how they're crucial for local wildlife. He'll also discuss the threat that invasive plants pose for our ecosystems, and what we can do to protect and restore local nature. The presentation will be followed by an interactive Q&amp;A session.

<a href="https://longislandconservancy.org/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">The Long Island Conservancy</a> (LIC) was established in 2021 as a grassroots organization of volunteers united by a shared vision: to strengthen conservation efforts across Long Island. Since its inception, the Conservancy has grown into a recognized 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization — yet its mission remains unchanged: to plant native, remove the invasive, and conserve our lands, and in doing so, restore the local ecosystems on Long Island.

Beginning his career in New York’s “Silicon Alley,” Marshall Brown worked with early internet and civic-tech startups, helping them develop technologies and business strategies that served the public good. In the 2000s, Marshall helped pioneer New York City’s public Wi-Fi movement, bringing free wireless access to parks across four boroughs — including Times Square and Union Square. He later led Save the Great South Bay, a nonprofit of over 15,000 members focused on uniting scientists and local residents to protect Long Island’s waterways and ecosystems. He also co-founded Spadefoot Ecosystem Solutions, developing nature-based approaches to water treatment and pollution reduction. Marshall believes that lasting change begins locally — when technology, community, and nature work together toward a shared future.

This program will be held on Saturday, May 16, at 12:00 p.m. both online and in person at the Great Neck Library (Main Building, 159 Bayview Avenue). Presenter Marshall Brown will appear virtually via Zoom. Registration is only required for those attending remotely; in-person attendees are welcome to walk in (seating is first-come, first-served). For assistance, please call (516) 466-8055 or email adultprogramming@greatnecklibrary.org.

To celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Heritage Month, the Great Neck Library is hosting a special screening of the documentary Photographic Justice: The Corky Lee Story. This 87-minute film chronicles the 50-year quest of photographer Corky Lee to document Asian American history and activism.

Corky Lee didn’t just take pictures; he fought for visibility. Armed with his camera as a "weapon against injustice," the legendary Chinese American photographer spent decades documenting the Asian American experience. This intimate film explores the life of a man whose art became his activism, capturing the triumphs, tragedies, and unforgettable images that empowered generations.

After the film, Jennifer Takaki (Director), George Hirose (Executive Producer), and Linda Lew Woo (Producer) will hold a Q&amp;A discussion.

The movie screening will be at the Great Neck Library, 159 Bayview Avenue, Great Neck, on Sunday May 17, at 2:00 p.m. Registration is open to all. For more information, please call Great Neck Library at (516) 466-8055 or email <a href="mailto:adultprogramming@greatnecklibrary.org">adultprogramming@greatnecklibrary.org</a>.

Come and see the exhibition of striking masterpieces of sculptures by Dr. Suzanne Posner from May 1 to July 31 at the Great Neck Library at 159 Bayview Avenue, Great Neck. The sculptures are located at the bookshelves in the Main Library's Reference Study Area. Be sure to join us for an art reception on June 6 from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. in the Main Library's Front Lobby. "Making art is joyful. An artist makes art out of the materials available. The nature of the materials influences or even elicits the creation. I enjoy seeing the materials from which the art originates; the stone, the paint, the paper, the wire. I am a direct carver, often starting a piece without knowing what the subject will be or changing the subject after starting. If a piece of stone breaks off unintentionally or a painting subject move, the artwork may need to change midway. I try to take the unexpected as an exciting challenge and continue the work with grace. I hope to bring joy to viewers with beautiful shapes and brilliant color." Dr. Suzanne Posner is an award-winning sculptor and painter. She has been sculpting in stone for 30 years and currently teaches stone sculpture at Cumberland School in Great Neck, NY. Posner’s work can be found in private art collections throughout the United States and has been seen in numerous group and solo shows. She is a member of The Art Students League of New York and The National Art League. Suzanne grew up creating clay creatures and unique jewelry and acting in school musicals. She has visited over 50 countries. She graduated from Bryn Mawr College with a B.A. in Philosophy and from the University of North Carolina with a D.D.S. While she practiced dentistry in NYC, she studied sculpture and painting at The Art Students League and The New School. She moved back to her hometown of Great Neck and started sculpting in stone as she raised 2 creative and responsible sons with her beloved husband, Alan Katz. In 2011, Suzanne was diagnosed with Parkinson’s Disease, and she retired from dentistry to sculpt and paint and teach stone carving.
