Lake Worth Earth Day Fest
2015
Earth Day Fest returns to Lake Worth’s downtown Cultural Plaza on Saturday, April 25th featuring family fun, eco-exhibits and an exciting line up of live acoustic and jam bands.
The festival runs from 10 AM – 9 PM beginning with a guided bird walk lead by Gael Silverblatt. The day continues with children’s activities, crafts, Earth Ball Games, prizes and a kids’ music circle and an a “all-in” kids’ drum circle. At 4:30PM, the Mayor will read the City’s Earth Day Proclamation and dedicate the new tree in the Cultural Plaza. Late afternoon and evening will feature more adult music. Plan on a day of celebration, music, green exhibits, healthy food and earth-friendly fun.
The Cultural Plaza is located at Lake Avenue and M Street across from the Lake Worth library. Admission is free.
Exhibits will range from county wide water conservation projects to solar energy, home gardening, rain barrels and Florida wildlife. Contact Andy Amoroso at aamoroso@lakeworth.org for more information about vendor space, provided free to nonprofits.
The tree-giveaway (Lake Worth residents only) will be on a first-come, first serve basis administrated by the Lake Worth Tree Board.
