The City of Savannah Office of Sustainability hosts the 25th Earth Day Savannah festival. With the support of the Lite Foot Environmental Foundation and sponsors, this year’s event promises to be an engaging and educational experience for all attendees — rain or shine!

This event aims to raise awareness about the crucial role that healthy food, clean air and water, and global biodiversity play in supporting human health. The festival is Savannah's largest environmental outreach event and one of the most significant educational gatherings related to Earth Day in Georgia.

The City’s Office of Sustainability is excited to speak with the community about the 100% Savannah plan. In March of 2020, City Council unanimously approved a resolution calling for 100% of electricity in the city to come from a renewable clean energy source by 2035. Attendees will have the opportunity to learn how they can save money by improving their home’s energy efficiency or leasing solar panels from the City’s trusted partners.

Throughout the evening, hands-on workshops will give residents a chance to incorporate sustainability into their daily lives. Highlights include sessions on managing anxiety about the climate crisis, mending your clothes, and empowering young climate activists.

Children’s activities, food trucks, and local nonprofit vendors will round out a full evening of family fun in Daffin Park.

Welcome to Hollywood, where dreams shimmer like neon mirages, identities slip like silk, and the streets are paved with stardust—and something much, much darker. A starry-eyed ingenue arrives in the City of Angeles to pursue her dream of movie stardom only to become ensnared in a hypnotic puzzle box of a mystery after meeting an enigmatic amnesiac brunette. Widely cited as one of the greatest movies of the 21st century, we invite you to pay tribute to the architect of our dreams, David Lynch, with his surrealist, Oscar-nominated masterpiece.

An introduction by a SCAD faculty member precedes the screening.

Tickets are free for SCAD Card holders; $5 for students, seniors, and military; and $8 for the general public.

HSF is pleased to host a special lecture on “Jewish Foodways in the Lowcountry South” as part of the 2024 Lecture Series, “People, Stories, and Places that define Savannah.” This cultural discussion will feature Kugels & Collards authors Rachel Barnett and Lyssa Harvey as well as Congregation Mickve Israel’s Rabbi Robert Haas on Thursday, April 18 at the HSF headquarters, located at 321 E. York St. Attendees are invited to a wine reception at 5:30 p.m, with the lecture starting at 6 p.m.

The discussion will include Rabbi Haas addressing Savannah’s significant Jewish history, and authors Barnett and Harvey exploring the unique history and experience of Jewish foodways in the Lowcountry South.  

Barnett and Harvey’s book, Kugels & Collards, is a collection of recipes and essays from Jewish families who arrived in the South from 1791 to the present day. Published as a project of the Columbia Jewish Heritage Initiative and sponsored by the Jewish Historical Society of South Carolina and Historic Columbia, the book uses food as a lens to view the Jewish experience in the South and explores the merging of Southern and Jewish elements into the foodways that now define Lowcountry cuisine.

“We often focus on physical representations of history through buildings or monuments, but history can also be experienced through recipes that have been passed down for generations,” says Historic Savannah Foundation CEO and President Susan Adler.

 Historic Savannah Foundation’s 2024 Lecture Series is open to the public. Reservations are recommended, as space is limited. Attendance is free for Historic Savannah Foundation members and $15 for non-members.

Members may RSVP by emailing Kendall Graham kgraham@myhsf.org or calling 912-233-7787, ext. 109. Non-members may reserve their spot by clicking the button near the top of this page.
