Come early and visit with artists and purchase their art. Locally grown and prepared delicious food will be available. 

“We Are the Eighth Day” grew out of the need to shed light on the fact that women throughout the world are disproportionately affected by climate change and yet have the least opportunity to offer their leadership and voice in circles of power," says a promo for the event. "At the same time, women’s creativity holds solutions, resilience and hope in light of environmental challenges---women are the eighth day of creation in the world today.
