Keep the Greenbelt Green Man Festival Thriving!

Keep the Greenbelt Green Man Festival Alive & Thriving!

The CHEARS* team is asking for your support to keep the Green Man Festival going strong!

The Green Man Festival is coming in May and we would love your help and support to continue this vibrant and delightful community event.

The Green Man Festival is all about connecting to what we love: nature, community, & creativity!

It is all of YOU who come with your willingness and openness that brings this festival alive! Will you keep it going and keep it thriving? Please donate what you can today!

Why do we need you now? One of the founding organizers, Richard McMullin, passed away several months ago. Richard put an incredible amount of love and energy into the Green Man Festival and we would like to honor him by keeping it alive and make it shine as bright as the light Richard helped to create! We have a funding gap that we need your help filling. Show your support for the festival and Richard’s dream! Your donation makes a difference!

We would love your support to help keep this wonderful community gem continuing for many years to come. All proceeds will go directly to support the major programs of the festival, including funding all of the arts & crafts for the kids' programs, providing great local live music, and providing educational workshops throughout the weekend.

The Greenbelt Green Man Festival started 18 years ago in Greenbelt to commemorate the saving of the Greenbelt Forest Preserve. Our sponsor, CHEARS (Chesapeake Education, Arts and Research Society), continues the great work of educating our children, our future generation, on how to care for the earth and all beings on our planet.

Any amount is greatly appreciated! It takes a village to make a festival! We can do this!! Please give what you can! THANK YOU so much!!
