Clean Water Act Festival

70 River Front Drive,Pittsburgh PA 15209

15 October, 2022

Description

50 years ago, the United States recognized that access to clean, safe water is a critical human right and passed the Clean Water Act. This powerful law ended the culture of dumping raw sewage and untreated industrial waste into our waters and led to a dramatic improvement in the health and safety of waterways across the country. 2022 marks a monument year in which we can celebrate the power and promise of this revolutionary law to protect communities around the country and in our region and demand equal justice and access to clean water. The festival is free and open to the public with food trucks, exhibitors with educational water activities, artists, free commemorative t-shirt to the first 200 attendees, a festival river trail bike parade, free rowing lessons provided by Three Rivers Rowing Association, a free tree giveaway by Tree Pittsburgh, and presentations from water experts and water related activities for all ages. Registration appreciated but not required.
