Why we won’t just leave
What Alaska Is Telling The World About Climate Change
Alaska is warming twice as fast as the rest of the world, and changes in Alaska’s landscape have a global impact. Why We Won’t Just Leave: What Alaska is Telling the World About Climate Change is a virtual exhibition curated by Lindsay Carron and presented by Social and Public Art Resource Center (SPARC) that highlights the responses of Alaskans to their rapidly changing environment. This exhibition delivers messages that are key for us all if we are to reverse climate catastrophe and cultivate a healthy, vibrant future for generations to come. From activists delivering testimonies in D.C. and artists revealing truth with beauty, to scientists studying methane released from melting permafrost, Alaska has a message for the world.
This coming Saturday, February 27th at the virtual curatorial walk-through on Zoom 4pm PST. If you haven’t yet, please RSVP to join the Zoom room: https://sparcinla.org/why-we-wont/
