The Akron GreenFest will be held at the John S. Knight Center on Saturday and Sunday, March 20-21, 2010. The two day festival will be a Celebration of all things Green in Ohio and beyond. The GreenFest will showcase renewable energy exhibits, green living ideas, green building and natural, organic, healthy, and local products.
”We are so happy to be able to hold the GreenFest at this wonderful facility here in Akron,” said Deborah Dufton the event organizer, “What a great location for all to have fun and learn ways to live a healthier and greener lifestyle and maybe even find a job as the Green Industry is one of the few sectors in our economy that is actually looking for employees right now.”
A long list of exhibitors will be attending the event from many different Green walks of life including: Renewable Energy, Green Kids, Organic and Natural Products, Natural Health and Beauty, Green Building , Green Living, Earth Friendly Fashion, Waste Reduction, Health and Beauty, Local Businesses, and Non-Profit Organizations.
There will be exhibits, several live bands, performers, local school entertainers of all kinds, and much more.
“The GreenFest celebrates the latest green solutions in a fun and informative way." Interactive displays, hands on demonstrations and lots of ‘positive green energy’ as people learn about ways to live a healthier and sustainable lifestyle,” said Dufton, “It will be a weekend of good green fun for all.”
The GreenFest is brought to Akron by American GreenFest, the award winning producers of the East End GreenFest, voted “Event of the Year” by the readers of Dan’s Papers.
