Annual Events

Membership and

Community Growth Event

Every Spring we harness the momentum to welcome community members new and old to join us for our annual membership event.

This is an opportunity to learn about the current efforts of KEA, the current environmental needs of our region, and ways to help conserve, protect, and restore our local environment.

It's a great opportunity to share the good company and ideas of like minded community members.

North Idaho Green Summit

The first North Idaho Green Summit was hosted in the spring of 2024. The goal of the summit is to bring together community members together to share information, insights and dialogue regarding regional environmental issues.

It's a great opportunity to connect with other like minded individuals to discuss ideas and opportunities for local advocacy.

Junk 2 Funk

Junk 2 Funk is a lively evening full of creative flair and one of KEA's longest-running, annual fundraising events. It's is a runway "trashion" show where all of the outfits must be made of at least 80% garbage.

Artists young and old flex their imagination and spunk as they design one-of-a-kind "trashy" fashion, and strut the catwalk in environmental style.
