K-pop girl group EVERGLOW traded the concert stage for community impact at The Shops at Skyview, headlining a first-of-its-kind Earth Day celebration that blended sustainability, art, and giving.<\/p>\n

The bees were buzzing at the beloved Flushing mall\u2014home to a rooftop beehive since 2022\u2014as visitors gathered for honey tastings, beeswax candle workshops, and a large-scale recycled art installation created with Francis Lewis High School students. Beneath handmade floral displays crafted from repurposed materials, EVERGLOW joined locals to spotlight environmental awareness and community care.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlanet in Bloom allows us to bring that mission to life in an engaging way while inviting our community to celebrate Earth Month through education, creativity, and giving back,\u201d said Wesley Sin, senior marketing manager of Acadia Realty Trust, owner of The Shops at Skyview.<\/p>\n

Fresh off their New York performance at Brooklyn Monarch and in the midst of their [RE:CODE] tour, EVERGLOW\u2019s appearance underscored a pivotal evolution. Now performing as a four-member group, E:U, Sihyeon, Onda, and Aisha, their participation in an Earth Day initiative rooted in renewal mirrored their own artistic reset.<\/p>\n

For EVERGLOW, who stated that music is their life, shared that sense of purpose extended beyond symbolism. Through the \u201cEverglow Kindness Drive,\u201d fans, known as FOREVER, were encouraged to donate gently used spring clothing, with dozens of items distributed to families in partnership with the Queens Borough President Donovan Richards Jr.\u2019s office.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cPlanet in Bloom at The Shops at Skyview promises to be a great way to bring together community, sustainability, and culture in honor of Earth Day,\u201d Richards said.<\/p>\n

The event\u2019s themes of rebirth and growth are closely aligned with the group\u2019s current chapter. Promoting their latest EP, CODE, EVERGLOW said they connected deeply with the message behind the celebration.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo Earth Day is so meaningful, and to be able to communicate with fans and do activities together is important to us. With this event, it makes us feel like we need to do more for the earth and environment,\u201d E:U said.<\/p>\n

Throughout the evening, guests moved through activations, including the \u201cPollinator Lab,\u201d \u201cHoneycomb Atelier,\u201d and the \u201cSky Garden\u201d installation, before gathering to meet the group. EVERGLOW answered fan questions, signed posters, and spent hours engaging with attendees.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe came here to meet our fans\u2026 We want to spend as much time with them as possible,\u201d Sihyeon said.\n<\/p>\n

The appearance comes amid EVERGLOW\u2019s [RE:CODE] tour, following their Brooklyn show and ahead of their next stop at The Novo on April 25. Built on an industrial, high-intensity sound, CODE showcases the group\u2019s new creative direction.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are restarting as four members,\u201d Onda said.\n<\/p>\n

\u201cNow we want to try a variety of styles and break into new territory,\u201d Aisha added.\n<\/p>\n

Still fresh off a flight from South Korea to Queens, the group acknowledged the demands of their schedule but said their connection with fans keeps them energized.<\/p>\n

\u201cHonestly, sometimes we can\u2019t sleep very well, and it\u2019s tough because there isn\u2019t a lot of free time. We are often very tired, but whenever we go on stage, we can feel the fans\u2019 energy from their cheering, and we want to give that energy back,\u201d E:U said.<\/p>\n

For EVERGLOW, those connections leave a lasting impact, and serve as constant reminders that despite the rigorous idol life with constant travel, the connections they make with fans make it all worth it.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cOne memorable moment I\u2019ve had with a fan was when someone shared that they were very sick and hospitalized, but our music gave them support,\u201d Onda said. \u201cThey kept watching our videos and said they gained energy and strength from us.\u201d<\/p>\n

In Queens, under paper flowers and the hum of rooftop bees, EVERGLOW\u2019s new era came into focus for fans and new listeners, not just as a reinvention, but as a reminder that growth, like spring, is meant to be shared beyond Earth Day.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"K-pop girl group EVERGLOW traded the concert stage for community impact at The Shops at Skyview, headlining a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":208358,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[53013,82649,6037,9,24,63,82650,122,124,123,22995],"class_list":["post-208357","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-queens","tag-earth-day","tag-everglow","tag-k-pop","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-nyc","tag-planet-in-bloom","tag-queens","tag-queens-headlines","tag-queens-news","tag-the-shops-at-skyview"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/208357","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=208357"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/208357\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/208358"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=208357"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=208357"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=208357"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
