Celebrate Earth Day with The Great Raleigh Cleanup + Hightide Salon

Uplift the Earth with a downtown cleanup, vendor market, and ticketed party and support The Great Raleigh Cleanup’s mission of a litter-free Raleigh.

Earth Day is just around the corner, and we’ve got a way for you to do some good for Mother Nature and have some fun along the way. On Sunday, April 20, our friends at The Great Raleigh Cleanup are throwing an Earth Day party with Hightide Salon called Tides of Change, and you’re invited.

Start your day with a downtown cleanup, then a street market on West Martin Street to shop from + meet local sustainable business owners. Next up, head inside for a ticketed party with live music, refreshments, and eco-focused activities.

The Great Raleigh Cleanup is also on a mission to raise $20,000 before Earth Day — and they’re already at $12,000. If you can’t make it to Tides of Change, consider chipping in with a one-time donation to this worthy, eco-friendly cause. Funds raised will support everything The Great Raleigh Cleanup does, including The Workforce, which gives unhoused folks a living wage + a job cleaning up the 919.
