This April 22nd marks the 50th anniversary of the founding of Earth Day. In honour of this occasion, the Creatively United for the Planet non-profit society, has organized a FREE online community EarthFest - Creative Solutions for a New World webinar series, from 11 am to 12:30 pm daily from April 19-25th.

The week will feature an incredible line up of world-class presenters who will explore a multitude of transformational possibilities and creative solutions to inspire and move us forward, including some of western Canada's top youth climate leaders. We hope you will share this information far and wide.

We have hundreds of people from all over the world already registered!

If you were one of the first to register before April 13th, we upgraded our Zoom account to a webinar format and are unable to provide automated email reminders of the webinars to our early birds. If you would like an email reminder just prior to the webinars, please take a moment sign up for reminders here.

As well, we will be keeping the conversations going and growing with the launch of a series of regular online presentations called New World Wednesdays, starting Wed., April 29th from 11:30 am to 12:30 pm. Creatively United for the Planet founder, Frances Litman, will host this series of fascinating talks designed to leave you feeling that anything is possible.

We are thrilled to begin the New World Wednesday series on Wednesday, April 29th with the warm voice and thoughtful reflections of Order of Canada recipient, singer, composer, librettist, author, storyteller, and keynote speaker, Ann Mortifee. 

Instead of being consumed by fear and all the daily bad news, we have an opportunity to explore the many ways we can manifest a healthier, happier world that works in harmony with nature.
