Gathering of the Vibes and Terrapin Foundation will once again host the festival’s annual Food Drive and Poster Contest. This year, the goal is to collect 15,000lbs. of non-perishable foods, hygiene products and clothes. Donations will go to the Connecticut Food Bank with a portion being allocated to the Bridgeport Office of Veteran’s Affairs and the Bridgeport Office on Aging. Clothing articles will be donated to the Bridgeport Rescue Mission.

For the poster contest, participating artists must submit their design for the food drive poster by June 13. The artist who creates the winning poster will win 2 VIP camping passes to this year’s Gathering of the Vibes Festival.
