Grab your kids, grandparents and dancing shoes and come on down to the Party for the Planet! This fun and lively event is a benefit to support the great work of Save Mount Diablo.

Blue-Eyed Grass, Save Mount Diablo’s house band, will open the show. Later in the evening the Jim Ocean Band will treat the audience to a live performance of their new album, "FrankenClime" -- a humor-infused, danceable rock ‘n’ roll monster mash spotlighting the environmental challenges of the times.

In addition to the music this action-packed event includes a “Trashy Fashion” runway show. Guests are encouraged to join the fun by wearing their best upcycled/re-designed clothing or homemade costumes sourced from recycled materials.

Plan to arrive at 6pm to make a trashy fashion accessory—a favorite activity for kids and the young at heart alike. Learn more about Save Mount Diablo and Sustainable Walnut Creek. A selection of vendors will showcase their services or sell their unique “sustainability products.” MCE will be on hand to provide education about clean energy options.

Premium beer/wine and yummy snacks/desserts will be available for sale, courtesy of Sustainable Contra Costa.

Plan to bring something for the sustainability-in-action “Bring an item, take an item” table – a fun way to upcycle a like-new, no-longer-needed household item or an unwanted gift you’ve been holding onto—and perhaps leave with a new treasure of your own.

This is your chance to Party for the Planet while supporting the good work of Save Mount Diablo. Everyone who buys a ticket in advance will be entered into drawing for a special “Discover Diablo Experience” led by Save Mount Diablo’s executive director. The lucky winner will be treated to a hike on stunningly beautiful lands not yet open to the public that includes a delicious picnic lunch on a ridgeline with impressive views of the eastern side of Mount Diablo.

Buy your tickets now! Adults $20, ages 18 and under are FREE.

This benefit is made possible by the generosity of our sponsors. Sincere thanks to MCE and Sustainable Walnut Creek.
