Welcome to the
Do Good Village
The Do Good Village formally sprouted during the 2022 Coast Film & Music Festival, driven by a vision to connect festival attendees with local non-profit organizations dedicated to environmental preservation, encompassing both land and sea. United by a shared purpose, their joint objective is to motivate, educate, and enable individuals to make a lasting, positive difference in their surroundings, families, and broader communities by providing them with the necessary resources and tools.
WHEN: Saturday, November 16 and Sunday, November 17 from 11 AM - 4 PM at Festival of Arts in Laguna Beach.
WHO: We are excited to welcome the following at CFMF 2024 OC Coastkeepers, Drawing For the Planet, Laguna Canyon Foundation, Friends of Harbors, Beaches, and Parks, LOCA, FLOW/LBHS, Pacific Marine Mammal Center, Blue Latitudes Foundation, The Surfrider Foundation, Laguna Art Museum, REI, Laguna Ocean Foundation, and more!
WHAT ELSE: At the Do Good Village, you’ll find talented storytellers, engaging workshops, and immersive, hands-on experiences, all while being available to help you get to know these remarkable organizations that actively champion our planet through both words and deeds.
