Planet Earth Celebration in Raleigh

Date April 22, 2008

The NC Museum of Natural Sciences (with sponsorship by Burts Bees) put on a great celebration for Earth Day this past weekend. There were earthy presentations, great music, fun events and even local and/or organic beer and wine.

First shown in the Art to Wear fashion show earlier this spring, Liz Bradford’s trash dress seems to make a statement against pollution both of land and body.

The Rail Readers played on the stage, along with the Rosebuds, Kickin Grass and other great local groups.

Our friend and colleague, Ty, was the Grand Marshal of the Trash Brigade. There was a parade at 2:15, and it was so popular, there was a reprise at 5:30.

As the tagline of the Planet Earth Celebration states, “Respect Your Mother.”
