Eco Fest Arlington September 19, 2009

On September 19, 2009 the City of Arlington is hosting Eco Fest Arlington. This event is a free, family oriented event that will take place at the Levitt Pavilion/Founder’s Plaza in Downtown Arlington.

The primary goals of the event are to help build a sense of community, stimulate environmental awareness, and promote stewardship across North Texas. We are inviting local businesses to showcase their green products and practical do-it-yourself solutions for home improvement and maintenance. They will be lined up on the festival streets surrounding Founder’s Plaza.

The event kicks off at 2:00 pm and the fun will continue until 11:00 pm. The day will be filled with entertainment from local talent performing at the Levitt Pavilion from 2 – 7 During this time period we will be providing classes on do it yourself projects to reduce consumption of natural resources as well as discussions to enlighten North Texans on different environmental issues and what we can do to help reduce, repair and prevent these problems in the future. There will be fun, games and educational classes for the children to enjoy during this time as well.

A humorous documentary called Garbage will be shown at dusk on a screen set up in the great lawn in front of the pavilion. This will be followed by Patrice Pike and her band performing at 9:00 pm ending the night up with a bang!
