Learn about local and global water issues.

Wise up. Get down. Take action.

Water is life's matter and matrix, mother and medium. There is no

life without water. It is the most valuable resource that we still

have. Luckily, we are finally realizing that water is more important

than oil or gold! Let's wake up as many people as possible -- before

it’s too late -- and figure out what we, as a community and global

citizens, can do together to secure this resource for ourselves and

our friends around the world.

Come celebrate World Water Day 2011 and join us to learn more

about this invaluable resource with global beats, live art and

spoken word!

Many Thanks
