Water Wizard Festival

 

11th Annual Water Wizard Festival, Wednesday, May 22, 2013

 

The Water Wizard Festival is an educational festival that is designed to celebrate our local watershed. Every year, environmental education organizations from around the Bay Area come together at the Guadalupe River Park & Gardens to teach 300 3rd-grade students important hands-on science lessons based on topics such as water conservation, pollution prevention, the value of water as a natural resource, and how people can affect their watershed.

 

The Water Wizard Festival is made possible by a grant from the Michael Lee Environmental Foundation.

 

Past presenters include: Guadalupe River Park Conservancy, Children’s Discovery Museum, Santa Clara Valley Audubon, Happy Hollow Park & Zoo, City of San Jose, Our City Forest, A Schmahl Science Workshop, Open Space Authority, Santa Clara Valley Water District, Don Edwards S.F. Bay National Wildlife Refuge.

 

Confirmed for 2013: Zun Zun! Zun Zun is a performance group that uses music, humor and audience participation to teach students about the environment.  They will be back in 2013 to help us have fun learning about our watershed!

 

Participants for the 2013 Water Wizard Festival have been selected and notified.  Please check back next fall for instructions on how to enter into your class into the drawing.
