The Sing Around is held every Wednesday night beginning at 7 pm and often continuing until 11 or 12. A monthly "Sea Shanty Sing" held on the first Sunday each month from 3 to 6 PM at Ballydoyle Irish Pub & Restaurant.

You don't need to know the songs, just be ready to belt out the choruses! This has been a regular monthly event since 2014. See more details • •	2 M.U.S.I.C. Monday M.U.S.I.C.

Be ready for a day filled with fun activities to live more sustainably and help save our planet. The GreenFest will be from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. at Prisco Community Center and McCullough Park at 150 W. Illinois Ave. in Aurora. As always, the GreenFest is a free and accessible event, so bring the whole family. The GreenFest is 10 years old this year! We are celebrating our 10th Anniversary with this year’s theme: “Celebrating the Power of Ten!” all about the top ten ways to help the environment and stop climate change. We will celebrate the “Power of Ten Solar Panels” with a solar-powered concert at the GreenFest! We will have an actual solar installation and power the stage directly from the solar panels. You can imagine how beautiful those panels would look on your own house! We invite lots of wonderful, sustainability-minded exhibitors, including local non-profits and businesses with a green story to tell. We welcome local farmers, who help us find clean, organic food. We invite local artists and crafters with a theme of reusing old or found objects or nature themes. Volunteers, sponsors and exhibitors please sign up on our website, www.auroragreenfest.com. Our Green Car Show will again be do-it-yourself, so you can talk to actual car owners and hear about how we love our green cars. We will talk about coming together to build a sustainable, resilient community. We have kids’ activities for fun and education. Kids are the future. We do this for ourselves and for them. Connecting with nature is one way to teach children and grown-ups to protect the earth. Nature exhibits, featuring bats, eagles, bees, skunks and other creatures are always a big favorite. Live music and food trucks make it a true celebration. “Our tenth anniversary is exciting for us. Aurora has supported the GreenFest all these years because right now is a critical time to nurture our precious planet, make sure the future is wonderful for our children, and keep our community sustainable and resilient,” says Mavis Bates, festival founder and chairman. “We love bringing our community together to celebrate our planet.” Aurora GreenLights, an affiliate of The Conservation Foundation, organizes the festival. The Dunham Fund has generously agreed to be a major sponsor of this year’s festival, in accordance with John C. Dunham’s dream of “making the world a more comfortable, safer place for mankind to live and prosper.” Parents, bring your kids. Kids, bring your parents. Come to the Aurora GreenFest on September 28th.
