SUMMARY:Mapping for Equity: Data Entry Class with BetaNYC at The College of Staten Island (CUNY)
DESCRIPTION:BetaNYC is excited to share a new way to map NYC’s public realm! \n\n\n\nBetaNYC will present the Mapping for Equity project and how to create more equitable and accessible mapped spaces.

Together\, we will digitally map community assets such as street lamps\, benches\, water fountains\, trash cans\, and picnic tables on OpenStreetMap. \n\n\n\nJoin us at the College of Staten Island\, Building 4N\, Room 101 (please ignore the google maps description that this building is closed). More detailed pathfinding and directions will be shared with RSVP-ed attendees in the days leading up to this event. \n\n\n\nThis event will be delivered in English and all ages are welcome to attend (provided that anyone under 18 years old is present with a parent or guardian). If you have any needs or accommodations\, please email events@beta.nyc. \n\n\n\nPlease RSVP by the end of the day on Monday\, April 20th. \n\n\n\nAgenda \n\n\n\n\n2:30 PM: Arrival and check-in to the event\, mingling\n\n\n\n2:45 PM: BetaNYC Presentation\n\n\n\n3:00 PM: Break out into groups for data entry session with fellows\n\n\n\n4:15 PM: Debrief & close

SUMMARY:NYC PIT Pop Up at The Oculus
DESCRIPTION:The NYC PIT Pop-Up (aka NYC Public Interest Tech Pop-Up) is a temporary\, immersive\, pop-up event where technology\, art\, science\, and community converge. For ten days\, a storefront space in the South Concourse of the iconic Oculus/World Trade Center Transit Hub will become part gallery\, part workshop\, and part future commons. This shared space for co-creation and imagination will showcase how technology can be designed to serve justice\, equity\, and community empowerment. This event has been organized by the CUNY PIT Lab in partnership with BetaNYC and the support of the Public Interest Tech University Network (PIT-UN). \n\n\n\nThis event is free to the public. The space will be open Monday through Friday from 2pm to 8pm\, and Saturday and Sunday from 12pm to 8pm. \n\n\n\nWhat You’ll Find Inside: \n\n\n\nDaily Demos & Performances: From civic tech tools to protest art and abolitionist projects\, partners across NYC will activate the space with opportunities for hands-on experiences \n\n\n\nVisioning Games: A collective narrative will emerge over the 10 days that will shape building a cross-sector space to generate opportunities for public interest tech in action for the future of New York City and beyond. \n\n\n\nFeedback Wall: People power is needed to direct the future of tech. Visitors will be encouraged to leave their ideas behind and invited to watch them grow even after they leave. \n\n\n\nZine Station: On-site PIT zine making with student and community partners. \n\n\n\nPartners & Voices: \n\n\n\nCUNY PIT Lab is teaming up with artists\, technologists\, justice organizers\, and nonprofits including: \n\n\n\n\nBetaNYC – Mapping for equity and open data demos\n\n\n\nNY PIT Regional Hub (members from Fordham\, NYU\, Columbia)\n\n\n\nPIT-UN.org\n\n\n\nCyberCollective – on surveillance and abolition\n\n\n\nRoadtrip Nation – Tech for Us documentary\n\n\n\nJustice-involved and immigrant rights groups\n\n\n\nScholars and students from across NYC\n\n\n\n\n…and more (zine makers\, musicians\, pop-up collaborators and neighbors!) \n\n\n\nwww.nycpitpopup.org \n\n\n\nAll media inquiries: PITLab@cuny.edu
