Hi everyone,
Piggy backing off of Patricia’s email… we also have a great webinar coming up on Earth Day (Monday, April 22) at 3:00PM. Join us for
Earth Day: Restored Spaces. Shari Hersch, Senior Project Manager with Mural Arts and Founder of their Restored Spaces Initiative will share the environmental justice tenants that inform the initiative’s projects
and programs and will lead participants through the strategies developed in the initiative and tactical approaches.
Monday, April 22 at 3:00PM EDT
Presenter: Shari Hersch, Restored Spaces Initiative Founder, Mural Arts
More info: Mural Arts Philadelphia’s Restored Spaces Initiative uses socially engaged public art as a platform for community-led neighborhood
change. Project sites become a community space and a strategic hub for cooperative thinking, spatial inventiveness, and environmental restoration. Restored Spaces Initiative employs a social justice approach to project design and implementation, centering
participants as the experts on the needs of their community and the articulators of project goals and priorities.
Participants will:
·
Understand the key tenants of environmental justice
·
Explore how a public art program and project can create strategies and tactics that support environmental justice
We hope to see you there!
