2024 Activities

In addition to connecting with many environmentally-related  vendors, Expo visitors will enjoy fun family-friendly activities at this year’s Expo. Here are a few of the activities this year:

Electrification Marketplace: Visit specific vendors who are showcasing the benefits of electrification, providing insights into available funding, and offering options to kickstart your journey towards a more sustainable lifestyle.

Plant Swap: Bring small to medium potted plants, cuttings, starts, or pots that you would like to trade or donate. Please be sure pots are clean and plants are pest free. 

Kids Corner: The Tacoma Nature Center brings family-friendly environmental activities for our littlest Expo attendees.

Scavenger Hunt: Fun activity for kids! Visit booths and collect stamps on your Expo Passport. Turn in your completed passport for a prize!

Craft Supply Swap: Sponsored by Sew Club Tacoma and Remakery. Bring new or gently used craft items to “swap” or donate. Items to bring: drawing supplies, paper, yarn, embroidery and beading supplies, scissors, tape, craft books or kits. If you can buy it at an Art or Craft store, it is good to donate.

Please leave the hazardous materials behind, including oil-based solvents, house paint, aerosols, or anything that needs batteries.

Food Trucks: Local vegan food vendor and coffee truck set up in Tollefson Plaza to provide hungry Expo attendees with delicious food sourced from local ingredients and food producers.

…and more!
