NYPD COMMUNITY COUNCIL FOR WINDSOR TERRACE AND SUNSET PARK RESUMES ITS MONTHLY MEETINGS

Council meetings are a place for members of the public to give voice to their concerns about crime. Tell the officers what's on your mind: armed robberies, sexual assaults, home break-ins, stolen bicycles, package theft, speeding cars, or any other crimes.

Windsor Terrace and Sunset Park fall within the 72nd Precinct. Everyone who lives or works within the precinct's boundaries is invited to attend Community Council meetings. Contact the Community Affairs officers at (718) 965-6326 if you have any questions.

The meetings are usually held on the second Tuesday of each month; this month, however, the meeting date has been changed to accommodate the New York State Primary Election, which will take place on the second Tuesday.

COUNTDOWN CLOCKS ARE IN ALL G TRAIN STATIONS

Real-time train arrival displays have now been installed in all stations serving the G subway line. Train arrival information is displayed on easy-to-read LCD display screens.

The new LCD displays use beacon technology. This involves placing four low-energy Bluetooth beacons on each train set and two receivers on each platform.

The system uses the existing wireless network in the stations and cloud computing. The receivers communicate with Bluetooth devices in the first car and last car of the train set.

When a train enters a station and when it leaves it, the technology uses the train's arrival and departure time to estimate when the train will get to its next stop. It displays that arrival time on the LCD display screens.

Altogether, 296 subway stations now have countdown clocks on platforms and/or on mezzanines near station entrances. Displays at all lettered line stations will be installed by the end of 2017.

Movie Screening: Sugar

Friday, September 8th, 8:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m.

Kick off Kensington’s fall season with a free movie outdoors at Avenue C Plaza.

On Friday, September 8th, from 8:30 p.m. to 10:30 p.m., The Kensington Stewards will screen Sugar, the story of Miguel "Sugar" Santos, a 19-year-old from the Dominican Republic whose great pitching arm earns him a tryout on a minor league baseball team in Iowa.

Not the standard sports movie, Sugar highlights what it’s like to arrive in a new country where baseball is the only thing that’s not brand new. Said Slate, "Sugar…give(s) American viewers a sense of how our country must seem to a newly arrived immigrant, without caricaturing or condescending to either guest or host."

The 114-minute long color movie is rated PG-13. Released in 2009, the movie is In Spanish and English. Consult the "Parents Guide" here.

Seats will be provided but not popcorn.

Avenue C Plaza, a public pedestrian plaza, is located at the intersection of Avenue C and McDonald Avenue in Kensington.

ART EXHIBIT OPENING RECEPTION IN THE RE-OPENED PROSPECT RANGE

Opening Reception for an Art Exhibition by Dan Drossman

Saturday, September 9th, 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Brooklyn artist Dan Drossman's drawings and paintings will be exhibited at the recently re-opened Prospect Range Performance Hall. An opening reception for the artist will be held on September 9th from 6:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

The Prospect Range is a community gallery and performance space in Windsor Terrace. The gallery is open on Saturdays and Sundays from 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. The Drossman exhibit will run through Sunday, September 24th.

Drossman's work

"uses elements of graffiti, cartooning, and abstraction to create dynamic, comical, and sometimes dark images that reflect the artist's struggle with a lifetime of chronic back pain.

His process is both cathartic for him and accessible to his audience through a deft use of line, color, and other formal elements.

Works range in size from small to large and employ marker, acrylic, charcoal, and mixed media materials on paper and canvas."

Other exhibition and performance events will be scheduled at Prospect Range throughout the fall.

Prospect Range Performance Hall, 1226 Prospect Avenue, between Reeve Place and Vanderbilt Street, Windsor Terrace, Brooklyn. www.prospectrange.com
