Earth Day Family Celebration

Earth Day Family Celebration Though our planet should be celebrated daily, Earth Day is one day each year for demonstrating the importance we place on environmental protection. It’s not hard to admire our planet’s beauty when we live in such a gorgeous environment, but plenty of local organizations are here to remind us this Earth Day. Clean up the river with the Spokane Riverkeeper on April 20 at Highbridge and People’s Park, or head up to Newport on that same day for an Earth Day Art Walk featuring exhibitions and demonstrations, craft booths and more. For those looking to change some of their own habits for the better, Second Harvest is hosting a Zero Waste Kitchen event all about reducing personal food waste on April 22. And if you’re hoping to get the whole family involved in the celebration, head to the Central Library in downtown Spokane on April 20 for an afternoon of sustainable fun. (You might even get a free sapling out of it!)
