People are always asking me what they can do to help the Gulf. This month, in addition to donating, volunteering, and taking action, you can attend a great event at Mondo, Chef Susan Spicer’s new restaurant in the Lakeview neighborhood of New Orleans.What could be better than supporting GRN while enjoying fabulous hors d’oeurves and drinks by famed New Orleans Chef Susan Spicer, fascinating stories from environmental attorney Robert Wiygul, and music by the Sasha Masakowski and Mark Weliky Duo. And you’ll have the opportunity to take home fabulous auction items, see a sampling below.Your ticket donation will fund our efforts to ensure that Clean Water Act fines levied against BP are actually used to restore the Gulf, and you’ll also be joining the fight for better policy to ensure this sort of disaster can never happen again. All while having a great time.Defend Our Coast, Defend Our CultureNovember 14, 20106 to 8 p.m.Mondo900 Harrison AvenueNew Orleans, LouisianaEvent ReservationsTickets start at $100 per person/$180 for two.Reserve your place today: Online healthygulf.org/lafundraiser Telephone 504.525.1528 x213 E-mail natasha@healthygulf.orgSilent Auction HighlightsPhotograph by Michel VariscoCity Park #7 Hootenanny for a Healthy Gulf Concert poster signed by Duff McKagan of Guns ‘N Roses and Mike McCready of Pearl Jam Mike McCready of Pearl Jam signing posterReclaim the Coast wine presented by City Winery Signed and label art by Michael Stipe of R.E.M.
