Alice Walker, Frances Moore Lappé, & Makana Celebrate People Power

Join us for YES! Magazine's 2nd Annual Celebration of People Power with Pulitzer Prize-winning author and poet Alice Walker (The Color Purple), best-selling author Frances Moore Lappé (Diet for a Small Planet), and internationally-renowned Hawaiian musician Makana, who made national news when he performed an Occupy anthem for the Obamas last year.

YES! Magazine board member Puanani Burgess will bring these three together at Town Hall to celebrate the enthusiasm and creativity with which ordinary people are actively building a world that works for everyone, and for the planet. A dessert reception will follow in the lobby with live music from Makana.

A limited number of tickets are also available for a private dinner at the Sorrento Hotel before the event with Frances Moore Lappé, Makana, sponsors, and the board of YES! Magazine.

Proceeds from the evening benefit YES! Magazine, a nonprofit, national media organization based on Bainbridge Island. Gifts made to YES! are tax-deductible and will be matched on the night of June 6th.
