Request
Greenopia, the Urban Dweller's Guide to Green Living, is seeking information on L.A.-area festivals and events where we may promote our guide via tabling and sponsorship. We are specifically looking for larger festivals and events between now and October, but are open to information that falls outside of those parameters.
If your organization is hosting or participating in an event that would be a good fit for Greenopia, please contact Elektra Grant at elektra@conscious-adventures.com
