Event Description

Please join Student Conservation Association and Pick Up America for a service project in Oakland prior to the San Francisco Outdoor Nation Summit. We’re partnering with East Bay Regional Parks to pick up trash and remove invasive species at the MLK Jr. Regional Shoreline.

In addition to our service project, volunteers may also participate in Art for the Sky to make a “giant living painting made of people.” Art for the Sky is an adventure in team-building and perception to deepen our relationship to sky, earth and one another. Come be a part of our picture!
