Pasadena seeks exhibitors for Earth & Arts Festival

Exhibitors providing green services or selling green products are encouraged to display their wares at the ninth annual Pasadena Earth & Arts Festival.

The free event is scheduled Saturday, April 16, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Memorial Park, Armory Center for the Arts and along Raymond Avenue between Walnut and Holly streets.

This year’s festival promises more exhibitors and eco-friendly vendors. Businesses and nonprofit organizations have the opportunity to display information or sell items that promote green lifestyles, composting, organic foods, hybrid and electric vehicles, alternative energy and green building design. Last year’s event had more than 80 exhibitors and drew in nearly 5,000 visitors.

The festival is also the place to learn more about the city of Pasadena’s resources and plans for waste reduction, recycling, water and energy conservation and other Green City initiatives.

Entertainment will include music from local bands, an interactive drum circle and dancers. Children can enjoy arts and crafts and more.

Sponsoring the event are the city of Pasadena, Armory Center for the Arts and Conscientious Projector.
