BIRMINGHAM, Ala. — Birmingham Public Library (BPL) is inviting the community to celebrate Earth Day 2026 at a free concert happening April 21 at the Springville Road Regional Library.
BPL’s
Springville Road Regional Library, Birmingham City Council District 1 (Clinton
Woods), and Black Warrior Riverkeeper are collaborating to present a free Earth
Day concert focused on conservation, recycling, and protecting Birmingham’s
natural resources.
The event
will feature Birmingham’s own dynamic hip-hop duo, Shaheed & DJ Supreme, on
Tuesday, April 21, from 5 p.m. to 6 p.m. at Springville Road Regional Library,
1224 Springville Road. The event will help nature lovers get an early start on
the actual Earth Day 2026, which is Wednesday, April 22.
Known for
blending powerful messages with uplifting beats, Shaheed & DJ Supreme are
avid supporters of education and protecting the environment, a theme in some of
their past records. Their recent single, “Knowledge of Shelf, “filmed
inside BPL's Central Location last August, highlights the transformative
power of libraries and the joy of reading.
This
concert builds on a successful 2025 collaboration that brought together music
and environmental awareness, encouraging residents to take pride in keeping
Birmingham’s neighborhoods and waterways clean.
Birmingham
City Councilor Clinton Woods has long championed environmental stewardship in
District 1, partnering with Black Warrior Riverkeeper on clean-up efforts that
promote neighborhood pride and sustainability. Charles Scribner, executive
director of Black Warrior Riverkeeper, emphasized the importance of
partnerships like this.
“Black
Warrior Riverkeeper looks forward to another collaboration with Shaheed and DJ
Supreme, whose songs promote so many important topics, including
environmentalism, volunteering, and libraries,” Scribner said. “We are
excited to reunite with them at the Birmingham Public Library’s Springville
Road location for an educational performance.”
Hosting
its second Earth Day Concert in a row reflects Springville Road Regional
Library’s growing role as a hub for community connection and positive change.
Residents
of all ages are encouraged to attend, learn simple ways to reduce waste,
protect local waterways, and celebrate the shared responsibility of caring for
our environment. For more information, visit Springville Road Regional Library

First
celebrated in 1970, Earth Day is now recognized worldwide each year on April 22
as a time to raise awareness and inspire action to protect the environment.
What began as a grassroots movement in the United States has grown into a
global effort involving more than a billion people across 190+ countries. Earth
Day promotes environmental stewardship through activities such as community
cleanups, recycling initiatives, conservation education, and advocacy to
protect natural resources like air, water, and wildlife.
