Habitable Earth through the Arts

Focus on developing projects that inspire care for planet Earth. Non-artists and seasoned practitioners alike are welcome. This course unlocks personal and collaborative expression through creative work. Conceptualize and create artworks making use of everything from household materials to advanced artistic skills. We work in service of environmental awareness and interpersonal healing. While exploring nonviolence wisdom traditions, your creativity is guided through idea generation exercises. You may produce mixed-media objects, paintings, or temporary public art. We also explore wearable works and performance pieces. Together we expand cultural imagination toward meaningful individual and collective responses to a warming planet. Join us to transform your environmental concerns into powerful and inspiring visual statements for the community.
