Artist and songwriter Dana Lyons will visit Olympia's Washington Center for the Performing Arts Saturday for the Masterworks Choral Ensemble presentation of For the Beauty of the Earth, an event promising to, "celebrate the beauty of the earth, help renew our bond with nature, and reward us with laughter and cheer." It's music for the environmental movement, with Lyons compared to the likes of Pete Seeger in pre-event promotions. Judge for yourself.

[Washington Center for the Performing Arts, 7:30 p.m. $15-$18, 512 Washington St. SE, Olympia, 360.753.8585]
