DESCRIPTION:Public Celebration and Open House Planned for Bay Area's Newest Green 
 Building & Nonprofit Home\n\nJoin us for a fun and informative day 
 celebrating the grand opening of the David Brower Center, the Bay Area's 
 newest and greenest home for nonprofits.  Drop in for a day full of live 
 music, family activities, great food, lectures, and 
 documentaries.\n\nExplore the relationship between creating social equity 
 and sustaining the environment. Hear about local farms and healthy rivers 
 around the world. From carnivorous plants to a solar telescope, climbing 
 Mount Whitney to drawing nature, this is a chance to celebrate nature and 
 discuss some of the most important issues of our time.\n\nFREE!             
 \n\nThe nonprofit David Brower Center is a vibrant place that inspires, 
 sustains, and brings together people committed to environmental and social 
 action. The Center offers educational and arts programs, stunning 
 conference and event facilities, and high-quality office space for 
 nonprofits -- all in the greenest building in Berkeley. It is named to 
 honor David Brower, a Berkeley native who many consider the father of the 
 modern environmental movement.\n\nThe Center will house innovative 
 nonprofits and green businesses, including the Center for Ecoliteracy, 
 Earth Island Institute and International Rivers. It also will offer the 
 areaÕs best event spaces including the Richard and Rhoda Goldman Theater, 
 a gallery, a restaurant, meeting rooms, and collaborative common space for 
 tenants.\n\nThe building – made with more than 50% recycled materials and 
 anticipating a LEED Platinum rating – boasts 50,000 square-feet with the 
 greenest of green architecture, including non-toxic materials; recycling of 
 rainwater; natural daylighting and ventilation; and solar panels. Under one 
 photovoltaic roof in the heart of Berkeley, activists, business people, 
 students and visitors from around the world will meet, eat, exchange ideas, 
 and work toward a just and ecologically sustainable society.\n
