SuperForest Calendar (8/7/2010): Seth Pettersen @ Long Beach’s “Shelter” Surf Shop

SuperForesters,

If you are in the Southern California area, are looking for something fun to do this weekend, and are at least 21 years of age, you are totally in luck. This Saturday, our buddy Seth Pettersen is going to be teaming up with the Aquarium of the Pacific‘s “Seafood for the Future” program and the American Institute of Wine and Food to bring us a night of awareness to the importance of our oceans, excellent food, and surf culture. A pretty mighty combination, don’t you think?

Here’s how it’ll go down. At 6PM, the food will be served.

Jumpstarting the guests’ palates for an evening of food for thought, a trio of creative salsas will be served with chips. Then, between bites of bright, citrusy and refreshing ceviche on crunchy fried corn tortillas, Chef Andrew Gruel and Marine Biologist Dave Anderson of the Aquarium of the Pacific’s Seafood for the Future will marry culinary creations and scientific facts to educate guests about the impacts that our seafood choices have on the oceans. Finally, local and fresh grilled Mahi Mahi tacos drizzled with a Baja style cream sauce will be served with ice cold cerveza.

At 8PM, SuperForester Seth will perform. You’ll probably remember him from Iman’s interview or from the utterly fabulous “Baby Buddha” music video:

And if that wasn’t reason enough to go, they’ll cap the night off with some classic surf films! All in all, a perfect evening and something you definitely don’t want to miss.

Here’re some more of the deets:
