Join us for a panel discussion of Environmental Murals, ARTivism, and Community Engagement during the 2024 Street Wise Mural Festival!

Street Wise Arts’ flagship program explores the intersection of art and activism (ARTivism) while centering womxn, BIPOC, LGBTQIA, and emerging artists based in Colorado and beyond. In 2024, the Street Wise Mural Festival will spotlight themes of environmentalism and climate action. We invite artists to create murals and public art projects that address this theme, humanizing climate change and its impacts, visualizing scientific data, and connecting viewers to climate scientists and activists. Ultimately we hope artists will educate and empower community members to take action and inspire climate optimism.

Panelists include 2024 muralists Oak Bloak, Apitatán, Catie Michel, K. Vuletich, and Dreamscape. Patrick Maxcy will moderate a discussion of the artists’ Street Wise murals and their environmental themes, activism, and community engagement.
