“Inspiring!” “Lively!” “Dynamic!” are words that community members have used to describe the annual Sustainability Town Hall. This event is free and open to the public. All are welcome, but seating at the Town Hall is limited! Register for the Town Hall at sustainablecorvallis.org by March 5th. Sustainability Fair - 5 to 7 pm
Town Hall - 7 to 9 pm
The Town Hall will begin at 7 pm in the Alumni Center ballroom, where participants will be seated at tables of eight for a fast-paced, interactive Town Hall. The program includes three parts, each with a presentation from the main stage followed by discussion and activity at the tables. A highlight of the program will be the keynote presentation by Andrew Millison, an internationally recognized educator and advocate for sustainable living. The title of his talk is “Global Resilience Efforts: Lessons for Corvallis”.
The Town Hall program will also include the annual Community Scrapbook, a slide presentation highlighting the sustainability achievements of local organizations and businesses during the past year – actions that are moving our community toward environmental quality, social equity, and economic vitality.
Just prior to the Town Hall, the annual Sustainability Fair will begin at 5 pm with more than 50 hands-on exhibits, each representing a partner organization or action team of the Corvallis Sustainability Coalition. A fabulous spread of delicious local food will be offered by New Morning Bakery, and attendees will delight to the sounds of the Nick Rivard/Ben Woodman Jazz Duo. Registration is NOT required for the Sustainability Fair.
The entire event will be waste-free, and attendees are encouraged to walk, bike, carpool, or take the bus to the event. Bike racks will be available on the west side of the Alumni Center. This event is free and open to the public. All are welcome, but space at the Town Hall is limited. Register for the Town Hall by March 5th at sustainablecorvallis.org.
The Sustainability Fair and Town Hall are organized by the Corvallis Sustainability Coalition. Primary event sponsor is the OSU Sustainability Office.
The Corvallis Sustainability Coalition is a network of nearly 400 partner organizations and hundreds of individual volunteers. Partner organizations include businesses, non-profits, faith communities, educational institutions and government entities. The mission of the group is to promote an ecologically, socially, and economically healthy city and county.
NOTE: There is NO registration required for the Fair.
We look forward to seeing you at our big event of the year!
