Toss your hiking shoes in the car & we’ll see you atop David Lynch’s Mulholland Drive.
Once a month we gather with the heroic environmental stewards of TreePeople to love on live music and hot tea on a ridge trail of the Santa Monica Mountains. When we’ve held time together to share in meaningful art, steeped leaves and some conversation, TreePeople’s eco educators split us into three hiking groups for peoples of all ages and abilities.
Soundtracking the sunset this evening are Pink Dolphins, offering their special blend of improvised compositions for keys and flute to your night hike energies. Bring a blanket, pour some tea, and bliss in.
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.

Pink Dolphins is a Los Angeles based electroacoustic duo (Christina Marie Karr + Lillian Doyle) weaving keys, flutes, and movement into pre / post apocalyptic sonic landscapes.
Their performances scratch the brain and pirouette between backcountry ambient, astral jazz, stateless dance, and ecstatic noise.
Born in 1973 from the hopes and dreams of a teenager, TreePeople is now one of the largest environmental organizations headquartered in Southern California.
They have inspired, engaged, and supported more than 3 million people to take action for our environment by planting and caring for more than 3 million trees in our local forests, mountains, parks, and our neighborhoods. Through on-the-ground research and educational programs, TreePeople shares knowledge with policymakers, students, educators, and communities around the world.
After fires burn, TreePeople reforests. When schools are covered in concrete, TreePeople creates green schoolyards. When communities experience food insecurity, TreePeople distributes fruit trees. When California is drought-stricken, TreePeople designs solutions to capture rainwater. As the world faces increasing threats from a more hostile climate, TreePeople helps create actionable solutions.
