Appel Farm Arts & Music Center hosts Healthy HeARTS Festival, a celebration of arts and wellness to launch their new year-round Environmental Arts and Wellness program.

This day-long family friendly festival begins with a 5k race and 1 mile walk on and around Appel Farm’s campus and continues with sustainable art-making, wellness activities, craft vendors, live music, food trucks, and local wine and beer.

Prior to the 5k race, Jess Brock-Pitts of Enlighten Well leads a pre-race warm up. Post race, runners receive a custom-made wooden Appel Farm finisher’s medal and can join in a cool-down yoga class. 

Some of the ongoing art activities during the event include: cyanotypes using sunlight to create art with flowers, a mindfulness activity with watercolor mandalas reusing book pages to create art, creating a musical instrument out of sustainable materials, and much more.
