For the past 16 years the Ithaca community has hosted the Ithaca Loves Teachers Winter Recess Teacher Festival in February, with discounted lodging, dining and activities available to public school teachers, school district employees, teachers union retirees, homeschool teachers, student teachers, childcare workers and their guests. Teachers from all over the country come to this much anticipated event!
The Ithaca Loves Teachers Festival is a partnership between Visit Ithaca, Downtown Ithaca Alliance and Tompkins Chamber.
