The Art of Climate Planning
October 12, 2021 - November 6, 2021
LOCATED IN THE COMMUNITY GALLERY
The Art of Climate Planning is produced by The EcoTheatre Lab and funded by a City of Ames Small Art Grant. The project is inspired by the City of Ames’ commitment to developing a climate action plan in the coming months. The EcoTheatre Lab commissioned seven local artists to develop art pieces with the aim of encouraging community participation in the climate action planning process. These art pieces will be displayed in various community spaces through March 2022. A big thank you to everyone involved in the Octagon Center for the Arts’ Outrage to Change Project in Summer 2020, which inspired the structure for The Art of Climate Planning.
About The EcoTheatre Lab: The EcoTheatre Lab is a small collective of three Ames artists (Charissa Menefee, Taylor Sklenar, and Vivian M Cook). They partner with fellow ISU and Ames artists and community members to produce arts events that build community and engage audiences in sustainability conversations. They approach their work from an asset-based perspective, examining the many assets that exist within our community and identifying ways to amplify and build on those assets through art.
