Young Artists for the Planet

Saturday April 20, 2024

In conjunction with Earth Day 2024, middle and high school students will explore creative responses to climate change while working alongside professional artists. During day-long workshops convened at the artists’ studios or workplaces, groups of 6-8 youth will see first-hand how professional artists use their conceptual insights and artistic skills as forms of climate activism. Drawing on their unique perspectives as young thinkers coming of age amidst dramatic environmental shifts, participants will create artworks about climate change and its current and future impacts on our North Bay community. An exhibition of works created for this project will be held April 22 – 29 with an opening reception on Earth Day, April 22, 5:00 – 6:30 pm.
