National Parks Conservation Association Kicks Off National Park Week with Community Fair

Just in time for the start of National Parks Week, join the National Parks Conservation Association (NPCA) and community partners for the West Coast launch of Find Your Voice, a new effort to inspire and empower individuals to speak up on behalf of our parks.

The free event will include educational panels, an environmental fair, food trucks, and entertainment, all on the stunning grounds of the Audubon Center at Debs Park, just a few miles from Downtown Los Angeles. Local youth will also participate in a hands-on service project building a native plant nursery.

Attendees will also learn about the Rim of the Valley, a potential expansion of the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area that could include Debs Park and other open spaces, wildlife corridors, waterways, and historical and cultural sites that tell the story of Los Angeles’s past. Join NPCA, community partners, and elected leaders to learn how you can support this and other efforts to create a conservation legacy for ours and future generations of Angelenos and national park supporters.

Date: Saturday, April 18, 2015
Time: 10am – 4pm
Location: Audubon Center at Debs Park
