NEW! Watershed Place Mats

Assistant Director Debra Hammond said, "In honor of Watershed Awareness Month, these exciting regional place mats are being offered to restaurants throughout the state providing watershed information to New Jersey's residents."

Designed by students of the Biz-Arts Program, these full color 11" X 17" place mats include original student artwork, regional maps with local information on watersheds and tips on what residents can do to protect their local waterways and their watersheds.

The Walt Whitman Cultural Center, located in Camden City, is a community based, literary, performing and visual arts center whose mission is to share outstanding cultural experiences with its local community and those beyond.  The Biz-Arts Program, the Center's after school outreach program, seeks to teach valuable business skills to Camden City middle and high school students ages 12 and up through the prism of creative arts.  Biz-Arts is the only program of its kind in the region fusing arts and business, therefore creating a meaningful educational experience. 

Each semester the Biz-Arts Program partners with a local entity to develop outreach materials.  This semester the program has partnered with the NJDEP Division of Watershed Management to produce educational information about watersheds and nonpoint source pollution in New Jersey.  The product of this partnership is colorful regional watershed place mats.

If you would like to order place mats for your restaurant or if you have questions, please call Trish Ingelido, Education and Outreach Coordinator for the Lower Delaware Watershed Region at 609-292-0502.
