There are four basic opportunities for groups to get involved in The Living It Green Expo and the Pinnacle Hills
Arts & Food Festival – a family-friendly community festival with a ten-year vision. Admission
and parking are free.
1. Volunteer for as many or few hours as you like
2. Exhibit at the three-day event. Reduced fees for non-profit and community groups. We do have a “grant” program
that waives the normal fees for community-based/volunteer organizations with limited means.
3. Conduct a family-friendly event at the festival. This could include children’s activities or something for teens. We have
a number of kids activities already planned.
4. Use the event as a fund-raiser. We always have room for more exhibitors. We offer a generous revenue-sharing
program to groups for securing new commercial exhibitors.
