CalArts partners with Visions2030 for the first-ever Earth Edition festival from Friday, Sept. 15 to Sunday, Sept. 24. Presenting the work of more than 50 artists—including many CalArts alums, faculty, and students—and community-based organizations across the campus, the festival of eco-consciousness coincides with California Climate Action Week (Sept. 18-24) and New York Climate Week (Sept. 17-24).
Founded by CalArts alum Carey Lovelace (Music/Critical Studies BFA 75), Visions2030 is a collective and speculative design project committed to shaping the future through imagination. Earth Edition aims to counter the “catastrophic storytelling surrounding the environmental crisis, and foster imagination to envision and prototype new eco-outcomes.”
