Enjoy a full-day Outdoor Celebration of Water & Earth through music, spoken-word, presentations, featuring an eco-village with delicious, sustainable foods and green technology exhibits, film screenings, and many water related games and activities. The festival's main aim is to bring different audiences together in celebration of the Earth and Water, making water conservation and education fun for the whole family and the possibility of choosing a sustainable future for all. The festival will amplify the positive message that each and every one of us has the power to bring about a more sustainable world through our everyday actions and personal choices. It attempts to widen the discourse from externalized concept of environment to an internalized choice of lifestyles, livelihoods, and practices.
Enjoy an entire day of music/performances, food and green vendors, film screenings, and water conservation games and activities.
