Overview

Who knew that being healthy could be so much fun? The NJPAC Wellness Fair is your one-stop-shop for free and creative health resources.

Hop on a stationary bike attached to a blender and pedal your way to a yummy smoothie treat. Or experience a reiki circle and get moving at a soul line dancing class. The annual NJPAC Wellness Fair offers health screenings, mental health resources and heaping doses of fun.
