In all the chaos, we found hope, support and courage.

Today, we are calling on our community to come together in new ways as we navigate what COVID-19 means for the Green Project and New Orleans as a whole.

In light of the Mayor Cantrell’s proclamation on May 16th directing numerous non-essential businesses in New Orleans to close, it is in the best interest of the Green Project and our community to close beginning Tuesday, 3/17, until further notice.

Like every other small business in New Orleans, the Green Project is closely following the COVID-19 outbreak, preparing based on information from the CDC and City of New Orleans, and acting accordingly. Of most importance is the health and safety of our staff and community!

We currently have so much paint that some is going bad while waiting to be recycled—we don’t want that!

Thank you for utilizing the MakerSpace and proving that New Orleans needs a space for creative reuse projects to come to life.

After three years at the Green Project, our Executive Director, Catherine Crowell, makes a move to Atlanta.

In partnership with the City of New Orleans Department of Sanitation, the Green Project is reclaiming usable paint from Household Hazardous Materials Collection Day and giving it to nonprofits, artists and residents—free of charge!

Joining the board is a great way to help us grow!

From dock to dish, there are many factors that come into play when talking about sustainable seafood. In this guide, we hope to help you understand the importance of buying sustainably, what that entails and where to go.

The Green Project is seeking volunteers to help for the second year of the City of New Orleans Paint Reclamation Project at Household Hazardous Materials (HHM) Collection Day.

While our mission remains the same, our new look is meant to better share who we are and what we do.
