Sun Day Festival at CCSU on Sept. 21

by Lynn Stoddard, Third Act CT, Sun Day Co-Coordinator

Sun Day is a national mobilization on the weekend of the Autumnal equinox, September 20 – 21, 2025 to celebrate the power of clean energy and mobilize millions to accelerate the transition away from fossil fuels. Spearheaded by Bill McKibben and inspired by the success of Earth Day, Sun Day will harness Americans of all stripes to highlight the benefits of solar, wind, and electrification through thousands of local events and a massive online campaign.

CT Third Act and partners are holding a big statewide Sun Day Festival at the Student Center, Central CT State University, 1615 Stanley St., New Britain, from noon-4 p.m. on Sept. 21. Please RSVP at Connecticut@thirdact.org to join us.
