We're still on - rain or shine! 🌦️

Join us tomorrow for the Delaware River Festival from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Penn's Landing in Philadelphia and Wiggins Park in Camden.

In Philadelphia, environmental exhibitors, the bird show, and face painting will be indoors at the Independence Seaport Museum. Camden activities will be happening outside as planned. On-the-water activities will be weather dependent, with safety as our highest priority.

This National Estuaries Week, we’re celebrating our dreamboat! 🛥💖

Two years after launching Tkuweyo — Lenape for wave — she's put in the miles and still handles like a dream. She's been a workhorse for our tidal wetland and living shoreline work across the Delaware Estuary.

We are so grateful for this boat and for the partners who helped get her on the water - Yamaha Rightwaters, Aqua, an Essential Utilities Company, and the EPA.

Happy National Estuaries Week!

Art is alive.
Muralist and PDE's Artist in Residence Eurhi Jones opened her River Alive art exhibit Tuesday night at the Jersey Photography Education Gallery (JPEG) in Camden, NJ.

The exhibit is up through Friday, Sept. 25. Closing reception 3–5 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 26 at JPEG, 303 Market Street, Camden, NJ.

River Alive is an overview of the many community projects Jones has been working on throughout the year across four cities-Wilmington, Philadelphia, Chester, and Camden and includes a community photography show by residents of those same four estuary towns, submitted in response to an open call for images of life in a river city.

Made possible through PDE's participation in the EPA's Artist-in-Residence Pilot Program and the Erik James Montgomery Foundation.
