Join us for an illuminating evening with Ashley Eagle-Gibbs and Leslie Adler-Ivanbrook of the EAC of West Marin (Environmental Action Committee), your local guardians of coastal ecosystems. EAC has, since 1971, been instrumental in protecting and sustaining West Marin’s unique lands, waters, and rich biodiversity through a dedicated blend of advocacy, science, education, and community engagement 
 

In this inspiring conversation, Ashley and Leslie will spotlight EAC’s critical work—from championing environmental hazard planning and nature-based climate resilience to hands-on initiatives like Coastal Clean-Ups, and youth community-science programming.

 

They’ll explore how EAC harnesses the power of grassroots support, policy leadership, and immersive environmental learning to protect habitat, advocate for coastal protections, and build long-term community resilience.

​

Whether you're passionate about environmental justice, eager to learn how local action makes global impact, or simply curious to discover how you can get involved, this evening offers a beacon of hope and empowerment.​

This event is free and open to all.
Donations to support the work of EAC are welcome.
