Earth Day is a beloved part of the North Lake College calendar. That’s why in 2019, for the second year in a row, we’re not stopping at just one day — we’re planning over a week of free events and activities on campus and around Dallas.
The celebration concludes at Fair Park in downtown Dallas, when NLC attends the EarthX conference – one of the largest Earth Day celebrations in the world. Visit the North Lake College table from Friday, April 26 through Sunday, April 28. Learn more about attending EarthX.
