Join the Surfrider Foundation, Audubon California, State Parks Foundation, The G2 Gallery and concerned citizens for an evening of art, activism, and awareness about Prop 21.

Representatives from the hosting organizations will present information about this important initiative and the need to secure votes for the November election.
When: Oct 21. 6:30-8:30pm
Where: The G2 Gallery
What: This is a public awareness event for Prop 21. Prop 21 would create a stable funding source for our struggling state park system. California's state parks are falling apart because of decades of underfunding. State budget cuts are causing parks to 'fall behind in the system' and there is currently more than $1 billion 'backlog' of maintenance. Our state parks are struggling financially and need permanent funding to ensure they are maintained (i.e. hiking trials, campsites, bathrooms, visitor centers, kiosks, etc), AND that enough staff and personnel are hired to ensure our parks are safe (i.e. lifeguards, rangers, facility managers, etc).Funding would come from a surcharge of $18 per California vehicle. The surcharge will apply to California vehicles and in exchange, they would receive free day-use admission to Parks throughout the year.
