Rubbish Portland: Ocean's Month! A Community Trash Clean-Up Event

60 Portland Pier,Portland ME 04101

29 June, 2021

Description

Our monthly RUBBISH trash clean-up event with an ocean focus in honor of World Ocean's Month. Join us! Through community and neighborhood trash clean-up events, RUBBISH sparks conversation and engagement around avoiding single-use plastic, rethinking our waste stream, and the connection between the trash on our streets and the well-known issue of marine plastic pollution. For our June RUBBISH event, we are focusing our lens a bit more closely on the ocean in honor of World Oceans Month. We'll be picking up litter on Portland's working waterfront and in the Old Port neighborhood. Come get your trash on and enjoy some fun food and drink. And as always - you can win some pretty amazing raffle prizes! **Event details below.** 5-5:30: Sign in at Luke's Lobster (60 Portland Pier) 5:30-6:30: Community trash clean-up around the Old Port and Waterfront (bags, buckets, and grabbers provided. BYO garden gloves for comfort) 6:30 sharp: A special *ocean-centric* raffle from your favorite local businesses! Dog Friendly • Kid Friendly • Planet Friendly • Dress for the weather!
