In honor of the famed Egyptian architect and world’s first doctor, Imhotep, the African-American Association of Co-op City & Black Vegfest will be hosting their 15th annual Wholistic Health & Wellness Fair Saturday, April 13. At the event, there will be entertainment, demonstrations, informative speakers and a film viewing of Robert Kenner, “Food, Inc.”

“We hope people to inspire people to live a healthier lifestyle,” said Deborah C. Nelson, the three-time elected vice president of the African-American Association of Co-op City. “There are too many people dying prematurely because they lack the resources and the education for better living.”
