Visionary Potluck Picnic in the Park


Potluck Picnic with Visionary Activists
Sunday,  June 8, 2025, 4:30 PM
Wilshire Park, 4048 NE 35th Place
Portland, OR

Our global economy is not serving the vast majority of the planet’s inhabitants. Driven by an addiction to profit and growth and controlled by wealthy elites, it has created an ever widening gap between the haves and the have nots.  And it’s destroying our only home, the Earth.  Business as usual is not an option. 

While those with wealth and power created this system, we, the majority of people, can recreate it.  Together, we can reinvent and manage our global household, in each community, from the bottom up. We can make it small scale, equitable, democratic, participatory, collaborative, and regenerative.  We can grow a new wellbeing economy that serves us all – one that prioritizes the environment, mutual aid, and care work, protects all the Earth’s inhabitants, and brings a natural abundance that money can’t buy. 

Help make this vision real! Join Extinction Rebellion Portland on Sunday,  June 8, at 4:30pm, at Wilshire Park at 4048 NE 35th Place in Portland for a potluck picnic with visionary activists working for a wellbeing economy.  We can all thrive!
