The Earth Day celebration, with the theme of “Connection, Solidarity, & Action”, is an opportunity to deepen our connection with others, share information on activities related to improving the health of our natural environment and our communities, reinforce the feelings and actions of solidarity that have arisen from the COVID-19 response, and make connections to others who might help.
The whole program will be streamed live on the Get Your GreenBack Tompkins Facebook page. Attendees may also join via Zoom.
Date: Wednesday, April 22nd
Time: 2PM - 6PM
Venue: Stream Live on Facebook on the Get Your GreenBack Page
Program: Find it on this Earth Day webpage
The event is free and open to all members of the community. One portion of the program--from 4-5 PM--is specially focused on families with children.
We hope you can make it for some or all of it!
