The theme of the Fall Festival at Mar Vista Park this year is "Mar Vista Goes Green"!
As part of the theme this year, the goal is to get information on environmental issues or sustainability out to the community. Organizations that have ecology, sustainability, nature, and the environment as their mission can rent a 10’ x 10’ tent are available for $50 each for non-profit groups, $100 for For-profit organizations and $200 for commercial entities. This is a great, inexpensive way to promote your 'green' business in the community! (They will also consider featuring community groups that do not necessarily have an ecological mission, on a case by case basis.) Each booth rental includes a tent, table, and two chairs.
If you are interested in obtaining a booth, please pick up an application in the Park Office or call us and we will send one to you.
The Fall Festival draws around 3,000 people to the park for the day, providing a good opportunity for organizations to present information to the public.
Let's all do what we can to encourage our community businesses to support this event!
