Time to lace up your hiking shoes and meet us atop David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive 🌲
Every 4th Friday we gather with the heroic environmental stewards of TreePeople who’ve planted OVER 3 MILLION TREES THROUGHOUT LA COUNTY to love on live music and hot tea on a ridge of the Santa Monica Mountains. Once we’ve had some time to share art, tea, a sunset, and some conversation, TreePeople’s eco educators guide us into several different hiking groups for peoples of all ages and abilities.
Soundtracking the sunset this eve is our sweet friend Matthew Mallinger. We’ve hosted Matthew in the past when he’s collaborated with Dream Crease and his presence is always one of warmth and support. With the release of his most recent record Means to a Beginning, it’s about time we have him join us to share this very special arrangement of cinematic percussive music. Bring a blanket, pour some tea, and bliss innn.
Check-in starts at 6:30pm, music shortly after 7pm, and we split into our hiking groups promptly at 8pm. Parking is limited so we ask that you please rsvp with us in advance.
See you on the mountain! ⛰
