MALIPALOOZA

- Liane Weintraub, Editor-in-Chief

Tastybaby was thrilled to be involved with Malipalooza, a community music festival celebrating Malibu bands and local artisans, which raised money for the Malibu Legacy Park Project, a water clean-up initiative we strongly support.  To find out more about the Legacy Park and the water clean-up project, click here.

Malipalooza was a grassroots event which was free to the public.  Local bands (amateur and professional) played on the open-air stage from 4pm – 8pm, and all the locals turned out to support their favorite musicians.  At 9pm there was a free outdoor screening of the famed 1960s music documentary, “Monterey Pops.”  There was food, drinks and plenty of fun fashions to buy.  There was even an art station where people painted tiles which will be incorporated into a commemorative wall in the Legacy Park.

Tastybaby sponsored the Kids Corner, and it was a blast watching children of all ages climb a giant inflatable rock wall, jump in a bouncy house, and “ride the waves” on a surf-simulation ride.  The Tastybaby staff and volunteers were also on-hand, giving out complimentary bottles of bubbles and “Tasty” tattoos to kids.  We raffled off a week’s supply of our baby food and a Tasty picnic basket, filled with delicious summer goodies.

All in all, it was a special day for Malibu and a great day for Tastybaby!
