2011 Evanston Green Living Festival

The 2011 Evanston Green Living Festival will be held from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., September 24, at the Evanston Ecology Center, presented by the Evanston Environmental Association and the city of Evanston. Inspired by the rapid growth of renewable energy companies and products for the public, this year’s theme is Alternative Energy—You’ve Got the Power!

The Festival will include the ever-popular Green Market, filled with nearly 100 green energy and other green exhibitors; demonstrations of new alternative energy products for commercial and residential uses; a variety of alternative vehicle exhibitors, including an electric automobile; a panel discussion titled The Energy Game—What’s In It for Me? Green youngsters will enjoy a critter corner and readings from green books for children. There will also be a silent auction, featuring lots of green products and services to bid on, and all proceeds will go toward benefiting the Evanston Ecology Center.


Cost: Free. Location: 2024 McCormick Blvd. For more information visit EvanstonGreenFest.org.
