On December 5, 2024, from 6-8:30 p.m., BuildGreenCT is celebrating its first anniversary with a birthday benefit to celebrate and help support its mission to accelerate the just and sustainable transformation of the built environment.

The event is an opportunity to connect with Connecticut’s sustainability community over drinks and hor d’oeuvres in the fun and relaxed atmosphere of a craft brewery recognized for sustainability measures, including energy efficient upgrades, solar energy, and reuse of spent grains and wastewater.

As part of the event, BuildGreenCT will cover some of the programs planned for 2025 (such as the Green Building Awards), the organization’s strategic investments and its year-round advocacy work. Attendees will have opportunities to win raffle items, buy BuildGreenCT merchandise and celebrate BuildGreenCT members. All members and annual sponsors are invited to share a sustainable project or product they designed or produced (submit before the event) and it will be featured on a slide show throughout the night.

Tickets are $85 for members, $125 for non-members, and $65 for emerging professional and student members.
