We have created conditions for people to develop sustainable art practices on many fronts, formed partnerships with fourteen entities worldwide and established relationships with leading individuals in the fields of art education, environmental art, sustainable development, eco-art, law and academics and educators in 17 countries. We have provided professional development for educators in public and private schools, we exhibited in museums and cultural centers in 3 countries, we carried out online programs for artists and educators interested in exploring sustainable practices - which has facilitated unprecedented forms exchange and dialogue between artists and art educators from diverse locations in the world. As we continue to engage artists, educators and communities in sustainable practices through art, we thank all the individuals, organizations and foundations that have in one way or another contributed to our growth. |
