Green Fair Brings Free Yoga, Planting, Tai Chi

Residents will roll up their sleeves this weekend to enjoy yoga, Tai chi, hula hooping, planting and other energy-related activities.

The best part? It's all free. 

The SSA-Sponsored event is being presented at the Wicker Park Field House, 1425 N. Damen Ave., by the Wicker Park Bucktown Chamber of Commerce.

Coined the community's "Green Resources Fair", the event seeks to highlight important Earth Day lessons. Activities will start at 10 a.m. on Saturday April 20. They'll wrap up at 3 p.m., coordinators said.

"This dynamic, family-friendly special event will feature exhibitors in the field house and lots of fun, green-themed activities in the park," the event information says. "Kids can plant seeds and learn about beekeeping; adults can find out how to save money on energy costs, check out bike building and electric vehicles."
