A literary reading and artistic presentation on climate change

We partnered with the Norton Museum of Art and the City of West Palm Beach Office of Sustainability as a featured event during Art After Dark. We had a juried selection of local poets who read their work and the City gave a presentation on sustainability with actions we can take to minimize our climate footprint.

Our guest presenter was conceptual artist and writer, Roxanne Darling who shared photographs from her self-portrait project, I AM: For the Love of Nature. We happily filled the auditorium and were thrilled to have so much additional support from the community. Her photo, “Saying Goodbye to My Merchandised Self” is shown above.

Here are the poets who read:

Eduardo Condes
Ellis Elliott
Amy Dahan
Laurie Kuntz
Kaja Andric
David Spielberg
