Creating a Student Scrapbook at the 13th Annual Youth Conference!

May 8, 2024

The 13th Annual Youth Conference is just around the corner, and we’re more excited than ever to welcome students and teachers to the Javits Center for a day of joyful learning and sustainability science!

To celebrate this event, we’re launching our new Student Scrapbook. The Student Scrapbook invites Farmer Scientists (and teachers) in attendance to contribute to an online memory book commemorating the occasion. Submitting to the scrapbook also gives you a chance to win a mushroom growing kit for your Hydroponic Classroom. Anything from group photos and selfies to scenic shots of the beautiful rooftop farm and pavilion are welcome.

To participate, attendees can either email their photos to our Social Media and Communications Coordinator Jake, or post them on Instagram and tag @NYSunWorks and hashtag #NYSunWorks. Only photos taken at the Youth Conference are eligible for entry. Submissions begin on Thursday, May 23rd, 2024 and close end-of-day on Monday, May 27, 2024.

If you choose to participate, in addition to entering to win a mushroom growing kit, you can expect to see your submissions in the student-focused edition of our official newsletter shortly after the conference. We look forward to seeing all your smiling faces again this year! Please contact Jake with any questions or concerns. 

(Participating students MUST have signed Media Release Forms if below the age of 18.)
