This year, we are fortunate to hold the 18 th annual St. Louis Earth Day Festival on the same day as the national Earth Day celebration on Sunday, April 22. Forest Park will again provide our backdrop for the Festival, with The Muny grounds serving as our arena. The Festival will open at 11 AM and continue through 6 PM.

With a lot of attention of late centering on making our personal lives environmentally better, this year’s theme – “Living Green” – will focus on bringing environmentally friendly and healthy things into our daily lives. We want everyone to go home with examples of how he or she can easily apply green living to their daily lives.
Highlights Include:

Educational Exhibitors will present a variety of displays and hands-on activities that will address environmental issues.

The Eco-Art Section will feature artists who will display and demonstrate their craft and will include a hands-on recycled art area where festival goers big and small can create their own work of art.

Entertainment on two stages will include jazz, blues, folk, world music and bluegrass as well as dance and theatrical performances.

Food offerings will include healthy choices as we have barred trans fats and other unhealthy fare.

The Tower Grove Farmer’s Market – A farmer’s market consisting of a consortium of area growers that will offer produce and herb and vegetable plants.

The Earth Day Bazaar will be a destination shopping spot that features trendy fashions and accessories made from recycled materials, jewelry, handmade items inspired by nature, art objects and things for the home and garden.

Vendors from all over the Midwest will feature a variety of products and services that will focus on green living.
