Join us for a unique evening of art, music, essay, and poetry as we present, "From Science to Action through Art: Four Artists Bear Witness to Climate Change”.  Natalie Niblack, the artist currently exhibiting the installation “66 Birds/ 3 Degree” in the PAFAC Field Notes exhibit has invited three exceptional women whose work also addresses the consequences of climate change.   

Niblack will present in partnership with fellow artists Northwest Poet Holly Hughes, Canadian-American composer and performer Sarah Bassingwaighte, and philosopher-essayist Kathleen Dean Moore. Together they will create a transformative evening that helps translate scientific understanding into words, music, and art that make the facts of climate change deeply real, visceral and relatable.

You will enjoy birdsong, choral music and poems inspired by birds, both living and extinct, and moving essays accompanied by music bearing witness for all species threatened by climate change.

Appetizers and light refreshments will be provided alongside of drinks for purchase.
