Climate Change: Our Response as Artivists
Apr 18, 2024, 4:00 - 5:00 PM
Free and open to the public, registration is required.
As the climate crisis quickly rises to the top of world concerns, different sectors scramble to figure out ways to respond to its impending pressures. The elephant in the room puts the onus on governments and corporations, but we all have a vital role to play. During this discussion, we will explore ways in which artists can use their voices to push the needle on political, economic, social and cultural questions at the root of this global concern.
Co-presented with the Inclusive Collaborative Arts at Mason (ICAM) project with panelists:
BaoBao Chen, co-founder and producer of Small Island Big Song.
Mark Cooley, associate professor and director of New Media Arts, Mason School of Art; Founder of Green Studio.
Moderated by Edward Maibach, distinguished professor at George Mason University and is the director of Mason’s Center for Climate Change Communication.
