12th Annual Clean Air Fair on May 9 in Downtown Tampa

The Environmental Protection Commission's 12th Annual Clean Air Fair is heading to downtown Tampa this week.

The free fair will be held from 11:30 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. on Thursday, May 9 at Poe Plaza. The lunchtime event celebrates May as Clean Air Month, and will include community exhibits, health information, drawings for prizes and live music.

This year's theme is "Environmental Protection Through Neighborhood Connection," and will focus on ways to reduce environmental impacts, energy efficiency and alternative technologies, according to a Hillsborough County press release.

Photographs from finalists of the EPC's annual environmental photography competition - geared toward high school students to recognize Clean Air Month - will also be on display.

For more information, contact Jeff Sims, EPC Air Management Division, at 813-627-2600 ext. 1285.
