Climate Creatives Workshop + Open Mic : Envisioning & Building the New Economy
Where is our economy going, and what role do artists, scientists, and community builders play? Join our Climate Creatives community for a speculative fiction workshop to envision the new economy, paired with a skill share to make a world of green jobs a reality!
After the workshop, art and climate collide during our creatives open mic. You got poetry? You can sing? Visual art? Dance? All of the above? Show us what you got - and pass along the inspiration for everyone!
