Berkeley VoteFest: A night of music, dance, climate activism and getting out the vote

With a critically important election approaching in November, getting out the vote is more important than ever — and the Music & Dance Climate VoteFest in Berkeley on Tuesday aims to make it as entertaining as possible.

A Grateful Dead jam band, bluegrass musicians, fiddlers and dancers will rock out and citizen activists will share ways to work for environmental justice and get out the vote Tuesday night at the Freight & Salvage club in the downtown Berkeley arts district.
