The Ellen Pickering Environmental Excellence Award honors and recognizes Alexandrians who demonstrate a commitment to protecting the natural environment and keeping the City green. The winner is announced at the annual Alexandria Earth Day event.

The success of Alexandria Earth Day largely depends on charitable contributions from businesses and individuals in our community! For information on how to sponsor this year's event, please contact Lisa Goldberg, Committee Chair, at lisa.goldberg@alexandriava.gov.

Join us as an Alexandria Earth Day exhibitor and share your knowledge of environmental topics through educational displays, plants, and games!

Help make Alexandria Earth Day a fantastic event. Opportunities are available for individuals and groups.

Youth art, fashion and PSA contests, a Bike Rodeo, Tent Talks, bike rides, and a badge program are planned for the Alexandria Earth Day celebration.
