Leafy, green, magnificent, delicious, and nutritious– these are just a few of our favorite words to describe kale. If you’re not a fan yet, you will be after National Kale Day on October 7th! Visit Spark around lunchtime for the opportunity to learn more about what National Kale Day is, the various health benefits of kale, how you can incorporate these great greens into your diet, and (last but not least) some free kale to take home! During the day, use hashtags #KaleHeroes and/or #KaleDay2015 to show your support for our new favorite veggie!

This event is presented by Eskenazi Health, and all of the kale provided for the day’s festivities is brought to you by The Sky Farm at Eskenazi Health.

We still can’t stop thinking about the amazing Swiftie weekend we had at SPARK on the Circle! 🪩💖🫶

SPARK hosted over 10,000 visitors who made 2,000 Taylor Swift-themed postcards created by local artists that will be mailed around the world for free, made hundreds of bracelets, got their faces painted, participated in Mary Jo Bayliss’ @andknits’s collaborative art project, enjoyed local music, and more all weekend long.

Thanks to @downtownindy @visitindy @indyartscouncil @musicalfam @inspiremusiccollective @indyculturaltrai @irtlive @pacerssportsent @indygaymarket @iso_education @ateampartyrental @minivangomobileartgallery & @megalicehartfor helping put on awesome events and musical performances this weekend!

And, thank you to all the passionate, community driven Swifties who visited our amazing home city of Indianapolis — We hope to see you back soon! 💃✨💕
