Join us on Sunday, April 23 for a parkwide celebration that will educate, inspire, and encourage sustainability, innovation, and environmental justice in our community.
Green Fest will feature interactive environmental exhibitors on the Love, Tito’s Lawn, hand-on workshops, immersive art installations, guided garden tours and a special boisterous outdoor spectacle from Squonk that fuses fantastical visual design, playful staging, high energy original music, and features the world’s largest puppet hands!
Squonk is an original progressive rock group that defies categorization. Their new production Hand to Hand features original chamber rock music and an opportunity for audience members to come together. Hand to Hand encourages shared discovery and making a community of the imagination.
