Pittsfield Green Drinks is a very informal gathering, open to everyone with any environmental interest.
Every month, on the third Tuesday, beginning at 5:15 pm we gather for "Green Drinks" at the Pittsfield Brew Works, 34 Depot Street. The next Green Drinks will be held Tuesday, February 17th. If you are interested in any environmental issue, from the climate crisis to land preservation, or from wildlife habitat to recycling, please join the gathering beginning at 5:15 p.m. every third Tuesday of the month. Green Drinks in Pittsfield is co- sponsored by the Center for Ecological Technology (CET) and the Berkshire Environmental Action Team (BEAT).
"Green Drinks is a great way for people to find ways to get involved with helping to protect the environment." said Jane Winn, Executive Director for BEAT.
What is Green Drinks? Green Drinks is an international forum where people who work in the environmental field meet for a drink and snacks at informal sessions. There will be a lively mix of people from Non-profit organizations, academia, government and business.
Green Drinks is a great way of catching up with people you know and for making new contacts. These networking events are very simple and unstructured. Come along and you'll be made welcome.
