Mind Body Fest, an event for families impacted by cancer, is a “relaxing and restorative experience,” according to organizers.
The event will take place from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. May 16 at Wellness House, 131 N. County Line Road, in Hinsdale.
Deb Kwiatt, public relations and media manager for Wellness House said Mind Body Fest was “created especially for cancer survivors and caregivers.”
