Edmonton Summer ’22 Art for Climate Events

How will we transition to a climate friendly economy and energy system? How can we cope with the dangers of the climate crisis while maintaining hope and taking action. Artists can help and young Edmonton artists are taking the lead!

Two groups are planning art events this summer that will explore the issues of climate change and visions of a better future.
