About this Event
The Earth Day Festival of Service: Mill City Community Beautification & Tree Planting is a vibrant celebration of community, art, and sustainability designed to unite families, volunteers, and community members in uplifting the Mill City neighborhood. Scheduled for April 2025, this transformative event showcases the power of collective action to create lasting positive change in South Dallas.
The festival begins with an engaging community cleanup initiative, where volunteers tackle litter removal, blight remediation, and symbolic tree planting. These efforts beautify shared spaces, foster environmental awareness, and inspire a sense of pride and ownership within the community.
A festival highlight is the mural design project, led by talented local artists collaborating to create a stunning masterpiece reflecting Mill City’s resilience, values, and aspirations. This artwork is a lasting symbol of creativity, unity, and transformation.
The live music performances add high-energy entertainment to the event, featuring a mix of local talent and nationally acclaimed artists. With support from sponsors, the music stage reflects South Dallas’s cultural diversity and offers interactive elements like artist meet-and-greets and opportunities for emerging musicians.
Made possible through partnerships with organizations like Ms. Alendra Lyons and the Mill City Teaching Farm,Texas Trees Foundation, National Park Service, and The Sprouts Healthy Communities Foundation, this festival mobilizes volunteers. It engages sponsors to inspire sustainable practices and celebrate life. Together, we can create a brighter future for Mill City—one tree, one mural, and one unforgettable moment at a time.
