Brookside Gardens is partnering with the DC Environmental Film Festival to present two films: “Troubled Tributary: Maryland’s Patuxent River” and “Upstream, Downriver.” These documentaries shine a light on how pollution and climate change are disproportionally affecting communities of color in the DC region. Join us for an evening of storytelling and discussion about how you can help make our community more environmentally sustainable and equitable.
