CleanAIRE NC celebrated the return of Charlotte’s annual Earth Day event at the Charlotte Museum of History on Saturday, April 20th. The event brought together the Charlotte community for a day packed with engaging activities, environmental education, and outdoor family fun!
This year’s celebration offered an unforgettable experience for children and families alike. Attendees explored and interacted with dozens of exhibiting organizations from the Charlotte area, each showcasing their work in conservation, sustainability, and environmental justice.
Many children and young adults engaged with our four Knowledge Stations using our Earth Passport. Through these interactives, they learned about air, land, water, and health and how they intertwine with our daily lives on this planet. Once they collected all the stamps in their passports, they became Earth Kids!
Congratulations to our Grand Prize winner, Sofia Tricerri, who won two free tickets to the Lovin’ Life Music Festival held in Charlotte on May 4! Additional prizes went to the following winners:
Congratulations to all of our winners, and thank you for supporting Charlotte Earth Day!
In the evening, we came together again for an environmental film screening showcasing Saying Goodbye to Forever Chemicals and Freedom Hill. Director Angela Hollowell and community leader Marquetta Dickens made an appearance to answer your questions about the films. We appreciate both of them for coming to our event and enlightening us with their experiences.
CleanAIRE NC is honored to have partnered with Sol Nation to come together as a community and celebrate our Earth. We hope you had a great Earth Day!
