Sun Day

Third Act is the organizer for Sun Day, a national day of distributed actions to celebrate the power of solar and other renewable energy. Third Act Working Groups all over the country are planning events to promote and support solar energy in their communities. The event at 15th Street is co-sponsored by Friends in Unity with Nature and Peace and Social Justice committees.

The Sun Day event in New York City on Sunday, September 21 will be an afternoon of entertainment, speakers, and family-friendly activities focused on the power of the sun and sustainable energy.

What is Sun Day? Sun Day is a global day of action celebrating the rise of clean energy. We’ll come together to showcase the power of the sun and wind, the energy sources that can power our world without pollution. We'll have activities inside and on the grounds of the Fifteenth Street Meetinghouse and in the adjacent Stuyvesant Square Park. Full schedule is here.

Our event will feature information booths and tables, kids' activities, a performance by Reverend Billy and the Stop Shopping Choir, and a panel discussion with Bill McKibben and others, moderated by WNYC radio/podcast host Kai Wright. Space is limited for the panel, so get free tickets here.
