Art + Science + Action Partnerships Celebration

The evening will begin with an informal gathering and then kick-off a series of lightning round presentations on the art + science + community collaborations with time for Q&A. Projects involve climate issues related to water, air quality and fire and involve practices such as collaborative crocheting, digital projections and citizen science, theater, visual art, music and more! 

This event is a celebration for the 2021-22 Art + Science + Action cohort; a program that is co-organized by the Office for Outreach and Engagement and Boulder County Arts Alliance (BCAA). Cohort members utilized the Guidelines for Art + Science Partnerships and other resources to address interrelated social and environmental community issues connected to climate change in Colorado.
