Welcome to the 48th Carbondale Mountain Fair!
FREE CONCERT
RAINBOW CONNECTION We are all creatures on this earth, some of us may be more mythical, or braver, or bigger, but, ultimately we are human beings. The colors of the rainbow signify that diversity. The rainbow flag has come to represent that diversity within the gay community as a symbol of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and Queer (LGBTQ) pride and LGBTQ social movements. We are at an important time in history when we need to shine a light on this community, as they have had to fight hard for their rights and continue to do so. We are all brothers and sisters. Diversity, though, is a much larger playing field than what this flag has come to represent, and at this years Mountain Fair, in honor of the 40th anniversary release of the original Muppet Movie, may we all come together to embrace our differences and celebrate our humanity in this colorful, messy world we call home.

“Someday we’ll find it The rainbow connection... The lovers, the dreamers and me” THIS FAIR IS DEDICATED TO THOMAS LAWLEY Fair Director - 1985 - 2002
Thomas Lawley left this earth in 2019 but his spirit remains with us at the fair. Paula Lawley, beloved wife of Thomas has shared an excerpt from his journal:
The Carbondale Creative District Celebrates Year Three with a KDNK Fundraiser August 16, 5-10 pm Join us on August 16th with The Dendrites. The 4th Street Plaza in Carbondale will be hopping with creatives, Rosybelle, the Mobile Maker Bus, craft beers and liquors, local food and live music. The evening will end with the Mountain Fair Slide Show, which will not be seen at the fair due to the early closing.
THE CCD IS GOING STRONG!
Check out our web page at carbondalecreativedistrict.com. This The Life and Time of Thomas Lawley Wow! Moving to Carbondale was a life changing place will help you search the district and find over 250 creatives in the area, event for me and my family. Then in 1987 the find the latest news and happenings size small ad in the newspaper for a Mountain and meet the folks that make it happen Fair Director. It sounded great ! At the job interview, I concluded by saying “you folks don’t know me, but this job was made for me!” A week later creatively in the region. I’ve got the job! My first Fair was a blast ! The perfect fit for my character, doing all the things that I love: organizing community events music, artists, performers and having fun while doing it…. Working hard putting, in long hours for, small pay and I loved every day of it…. Meeting new people, making friends, being the Go-to Guy for everything; planning, set up, cleanup. On stage is the MC introducing acts…. I was in my element! Working with so many great people, volunteers, you fun Board of Directors and always making improvements- like creating a backstage” lounge” for performers and volunteers to rest, hang out and reboot. The fair’s successes grew every year- more people, more revenues, providing more funds for the CCAH’s events like- free music performance in the parks and summer scholarships and artist installations, etc . Looking back on it all I feel so fortunate to be part of an excellent, Community The Mountain Fair and CCAH they are great gifts to us all- and treasures to be taken care of.

Mountain Fair Sustainability Reuse is the key to reducing our waste and lowering our environmental fair-print! If we love our Mother Earth, it is now time for all of us to take personal responsibility in keeping her healthy. REDUCING and REUSING are important steps toward a zero-waste culture. While composting and recycling help, they are secondary. A BIG THANKYOU to Pitkin County Landfill for supporting our Green Team efforts. How can we all do this at Mountain Fair? Simply by using fewer singleuse, disposable cups, plates and utensils. You can accomplish this by being aware of a few Green Team operations: • REUSE by bringing your own water bottles, plates, cups and utensils to the fair; wash them and take them home. It’s like camping! • Buy a stainless steel cup at the fair, while they last, and reuse it
for all your drinking needs. They are great for hot or cold drinks, soups etc. NEW this year: Bamboo Reuseable Utensil Sets. • Composting and recycling are the next best personal steps at the fair. Please be part of this solution, not the problem, by assisting the volunteer-powered Green Team with proper sorting at the waste stations. PLEASE REMEMBER: • Sort your waste in the wellmarked containers at our wellmarked waste stations where you will find friendly volunteers. Just about anything you purchase from a food vendor goes in the green compost bins. All food scraps, utensils, plates, bowls, cups and paper products are compostable. • ALL beer cups are COMPOSTABLE! • We do not sell bottled water at the fair. We have several WATER STATIONS full of clean mountain water marked with red and white water signs. Please bring your own
reusable container and keep it with you. • If you are finished with your program, please promote REUSE by leaving it at the Entrance/Exits for others to use. We thank our zero-waste community partners: Evergreen Zero Waste, Pitkin County Compost Facility, Town of Carbondale, the Carbondale Environmental Board and YOU for being part of the Green Team! Stop by the Green Team tent to learn more!
