Go Metro to 17th Annual Los Feliz Village Street Fair, “The Green Scene” Eco Pavilion, on Sunday, June 8

With climate change impacts on everyone’s minds these days, Metro is the cool way to get to the 17th Annual Los Feliz Village Street fair on Sunday, June 8, from 11 am to 8 pm on Vermont Avenue between Franklin and Hollywood Boulevard.

The Green Scene is a special interest pavilion within the fair designed to showcase environmentally friendly, eco-conscious and sustainable products. Samplings of the green exhibitors include natural and organic clothes to completely green living environments, to organic food, yoga and holistic healing.

In addition to “The Green Scene”, also will feature two stages of live entertainment, food courts, artisan exhibits, beer and wine gardens, a performance artist, children games, pony rides and a petting zoo.

Metro has teamed up with The Green Scene at the fair to encourage attendees to take Metro to the fair instead of driving. The nearest Metro Rail Station is the Sunset/Vermont Station.

All Metro riders who present their Metro ticket to the Metro exhibit in “The Green Scene” pavilion between the hours of 12 noon and 4 p.m. will qualify to enter a special prize drawing. The winner will receive a two-night weekend stay for two at the new eco-chic Hotel Palomar in Westwood.

For more details about the fair go to www.LosFelizStreetFair.com. Metro fares are $1.25 for a one way ticket and $5 for all day pass. Passes can be purchased on board Metro Buses or at Metro Rail station ticket vending machines. To plan your trip, use the Metro Trip Planner at www.metro.net or call 1-800-COMMUTE.
