La Jolla, CA (March 8, 2024) — Are you ready to Party for the Planet? In honor of Earth Day, Birch Aquarium at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at UC San Diego is hosting Party for the Planet, a family-friendly event celebrating our ocean planet while highlighting some of the simple steps we all can take to make a difference. The event runs April 20-21 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. It includes an hourly parade, people-powered music, and interactive stations that show how we can collectively tackle some of our planet’s greatest climate challenges.
Don’t miss the opportunity to contribute to an upcycled kelp art project crafted by Barrio Logan-based fabric artist Sew Loca. Visitors can all engage with climate communicators from Estudio Planeteando and take in improvisational performances by Imagine Theatre Company. General Admission is $24.95 for adults and $19.95 for children ages 3-17. Annual memberships are also available.
“Taking care of our ocean planet can be fun,” said Matthew Arrollado, Public Programs Coordinator at Birch Aquarium. “Our community can be great stewards of the environment every day of the year. We encourage San Diegans to spring into action by making small adjustments in their everyday lives that collectively can have a massive impact for our planet.”
