Since 2019, the Alliance has brought communities in Maryland, Pennsylvania, Virginia, and Washington, DC, together by hosting the Wild & Scenic Film Festival across the watershed. This spring, the Film Festival will provide warmth, inspire action, and raise hope during a time of growth and rebirth.
Every year, tens of thousands of volunteers come together to pick up trash from local streams, creeks, rivers, parks, and neighborhoods as part of the Alliance’s Project Clean Stream.
Surveys, listening sessions, interviews and focus groups, Oh my! What do all these tools have in common? They are all recognized as best practices for successful engagement by the North American Association of Environmental Education. Through discussions with, and active listening to Richmond families, friends, local stakeholders and leaders, the project team aims to answer the question, “What does environmental literacy mean for our community?”
The Alliance is excited to announce we’re officially bringing our annual Wild & Scenic Film Festival back to in-person in 2023! Learn more now.
This fall, on a chilly October morning, Alliance staff members on the Virginia Green Infrastructure team met with employees from Dominion Energy and community members at John B. Cary Elementary School (Cary) to plant native trees and shrubs in the school’s conservation garden. The garden is formerly a grassy lawn converted to a landscaped area that provides multiple environmental benefits and serves as an outdoor classroom and recreation space for the school and surrounding neighborhood.
Join the Alliance this Fall as we embark on a 24-hour, volunteer tree planting relay!
