 Clinton Presidential Library
In conjunction with the William J. Clinton Foundation, the Arkansas Earth Day Foundation is producing the Arkansas Earth Day Festival and Concert on Saturday, April 26. The Sierra Club’s Arkansas Chapter is a sponsor and will have a booth. The free statewide festival, to be held on the grounds of the Clinton Presidential Center from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., is designed to educate and energize individuals, businesses and government to take responsibility for a clean and healthy environment. With a range of fun and interactive experiences, from healthy food options to eco-friendly shopping opportunities, the festival aims to motivate all Arkansans and their families to take positive action for our environment while celebrating Earth Day. The concert, to be held at the ArtScene in North Little Rock from 7 p.m. to 11 p.m., will host live music, artists at work, and a green fashion show. The 2008 theme is "What Can YOU Do?"
