We all work on ways to be a bit more sustainable, but being “green” also means going beyond your daily bus ride and recycling regimen. It also means taking the time to give back to your community. In 2009, Bumbershoot Gives Back with a new program that supports fellow local not-for-profit organizations with necessary projects, helping the community to be more sustainable, one project at a time.
You can buy discounted three-day passes NOW. Single day-specific tickets will be available Tuesday, July 21. For more ticket information, visit bumbershoot.org/tickets.htm.
