There will be bands playing, art activities for kids, poetry, delicious food, and booths where artists will be displaying and selling their works. There will be vendors that will share information about activities of local environmental and green action groups, workshops, and all the things you can do to make Albany an even greener city. So come to the Albany Arts and Green Festival to dance, have fun, and enjoy our beautiful and green city!
Ride your bike to the Festival and take advantage of free bike valet parking sponsored by Bua Luang Thai Cuisine and provided by Albany Strollers and Rollers. Get a low cost bike tune-up by Street Level Cycles!
Albany today is developing a reputation for having a vigorous public arts program and being one of the greenest cities in the country. So it's not surprising that we are celebrating "arts and green" together! Art helps see and appreciate beauty, and protecting the environment helps create a beautiful world!
