Hot damn! Come on out for an “I’m on a Boat” party to raise money for Mountain Justice’s direct action campaign against mountaintop removal coal mining!
What: a dance party, fish fry, and fun night of jovial homemade-beer drinking, fire dancers, hula hoopers, fortune tellers, silent auction, and more!
When: Thursday 7/19 from 7:30pm until…
Where: the Birdhouse Neighborhood Center located at the corner of 4th and Gill
Why: On May 25, 5 Mountain Justice volunteers boarded a coal barge to protest the extraction of coal and profit from mountains in West Virginia. All 5 were arrested and are facing up to $4,000+ in court costs and fines for their brave actions! We wanna help em out and support ongoing direct action against the coal industry!
How much? $3-$10 at the door, $5 for entry + keg (w/ID), $5 fish fry! Bring some extra change for the silent auction and extracurricular activities!
If you can’t attend this great event please still support Mountain Justice and these brave activists by sending a check made out to Mountain Justice and send to
