Grind For The Green - Beat Battle Eco-Music Festival: The Eco-Music festival takes place annually between June and September in San Francisco. The festival is the largest youth-led “green” event series in the nation. It is led by a paid staff of 7 youth Ambassadors trained in office skills, budgeting, marketing, promotions, event production and environmental justice. Each Ambassador assumes an important leadership position within the project and sits on one of the following committees: Logistics, Community Partnerships, Sponsorship, Publicity and Promotions, and Environmental Sustainability. On August 15th, aspiring producers will test their skills in a friendly beat battle at Zeum: San Francisco's Children's Museum. Eight pre-screened contestants will attempt to advance through four rounds of competition that will be judged by the audience. A live beat making workshop and producers panel will round out this event.
