Use this page year-round to gather and share green news from Daytona Beach and the world. Let's make it ! Now, here's a bit about the actual Earth Day Festival in Daytona Beach:
On Sunday, April 22, 2012, The Chiles Academy, located at the old Bonner Elementary School at 868 George W. Engram Boulevard in Daytona Beach, hosted a Daytona Beach Earth Day Festival from 12:00 - 8:00
p.m. The 2012 Earth Day Festival supported The Bonner Center Community Garden project. Local farmers, merchants, and businesses provided food, live music, and workshops throughout the day.
2012 was the last year (to the best of my knowledge) that Daytona Beach had an official Earth Day festival. The 2012 logo, and the refreshed version for 2015, were designed by Jenny Nazak Art & Design www.jennynazak.com
The artwork used in this logo comes from 'Sunrise Over Daytona Beach' by Stephanie Gassman. Stephanie is a Sarasota-based artist and her "Sunrise" piece is hanging in the Ocean Center.
