About Event

Celebrate Earth Month with Heal the Bay at one of the biggest beach cleanups of the year—bringing together volunteers from across Los Angeles for a high-energy day of action, education, and family-friendly fun. Help remove hundreds of pounds of harmful marine debris, then stick around for games, raffles, a mindful mediation and hands-on experiences for all ages.

Explore our Expo Tent and don’t miss our Sustainable Fashion Activation with sustainability influencer Lexy Silverstien (featured in Vogue). Bring your gently used clothes to our community clothing swap, get styled sustainably, and learn about the connection between fashion, waste, and ocean pollution—any remaining items will be donated to Homeboy Threads.

Head over to the Ed Talk Tent from 11:20 AM – 12 PM to connect with fellow volunteers and hear from marine scientists, environmental policy experts, and ClimateTech leaders. Then join us at 11:45 AM for a raffle—with fun prizes and a chance to celebrate your impact together!
