In partnership with Trihydro Corporation, this annual workshop educates the public on PFAS "forever chemicals" and other emerging environmental contaminants.

The annual Oklahoma Recycling Festival is a family friendly event done in partnership with the Oklahoma Recycling Association Festival to bring together recycling enthusiasts (regardless of city residency) to explore recycling art, educational games, and businesses in Oklahoma. During this festival there will be waste collection, providing Oklahomans with the opportunity to give away their hard-to-recycle items to be recycled free of charge. On top of that, those who attend the festival can enjoy good food from food trucks.
