Please join us for a celebration 25 years in the making! The Filipino American Coalition for Environmental Solidarity - FACES was founded in 2020 to fight for the clean-up of pollution on former U.S. military bases in the Philippines. Over the last 25 years we have built solidarity with partners in the Philippines and driven a wide range of campaigns.
Join us for this special celebration of 25 years of FACES as we honor our legacy of environmental justice fights, from the bases clean-up campaign, to the campaign against polluters like Chevron, to the struggle to protect the Verde Island Passage. With food, ritual, stories, a sari-sari store silent auction, join us for this once-in-a-lifetime celebration!
Our program will include:
- Exhibits reflecting on our 25 years of environmental justice history
- Honoring our partners in the Philippines
- Special performances
- A silent auction of unique goods
- Special food and drink menu custom-prepared by Understory
