You’re invited to join us for the 9th Annual UNM Sustainability Expo, happening this year on Thursday, April 20 from 10:30am to 2:30pm on Cornell Mall. The Expo will feature a local growers’ market, interactive educational displays, and a handcrafted art market. The event will also showcase numerous alternative transportation, energy conservation, waste reduction, and sustainable lifestyle practices.

Grab lunch from food trucks at the growers’ market, and stick around for live music during the noon hour. Interact with sustainability-minded organizations at a variety of engaging displays and activities. Learn about sustainable initiatives on campus and in the surrounding community. Bring home some plant starts for your backyard garden or some fresh produce for dinner.

This Expo is organized by UNM students in the Sustainability Studies Program Growers’ Market Practicum class. Longtime coordinating partners include the UNM Office of Sustainability and UNM Parking and Transportation Services. Student Special Events will be sponsoring the noon-hour entertainment, local musical group Sol De La Noche.
