GreenFest 2024 is not just an event – it’s a movement. As an integral component of the HBCU Green Fund’s commitment to environmental justice and sustainability, GreenFest offers attendees a chance to enjoy delicious plant-based, zero-waste food options and engage in demonstrations that highlight sustainable living practices. Whether you’re working on environmental, climate, or democracy issues, eager to learn, or simply looking for a great time, GreenFest has something for everyone.

Popular comedian De’Anthony Turner will join Comedy Hype’s CEO, Jon Aba, along with DJ Dolph, DJ Cavem (Dr. Letef), and performances by Ras Kofi, Bodile Balams, and Mausiki Scales & The Common Ground Collective. The family will enjoy a Kids Zone with storytelling, face painting, and a petting zoo. For our Facebooking seniors, we’ve created a Cool Zone where they can relax, while social media enthusiasts find plenty of Instagram-worthy moments to capture the day’s excitement.

A special treat throughout the day is the HBCU Green Fund’s presentation of the GreenFest 2024 Environmental Champion Awards, honoring individuals who have made significant contributions to creating a greener, healthier, and more equitable community in Atlanta.
