About this event

Civic Art Lab 2020

We are pleased to announce our 6th annual Civic Art Lab. Free and sliding scale registration is limited.

Civic Art Lab 2020 focuses on “good health,” well-being, and solutions to poverty; examining: the importance of reduction of health risks, accessible healthcare, anti-racism, and the improvement of access to shelter for those impacted by the ever more frequent “climate-related extreme events and other economic, social, and environmental crisis,” along with the mobilization of resources that include access to food, sanitation, and water. Basic human needs, when fulfilled, help to construct a “whole system” in which individuals and families can live in relation to the earth. The Civic Art Lab 2020 call for submissions seeks to uncover thoughtful, innovative, and integrated design-led solutions to these challenges.

Civic Art Lab is a pop-up gallery and workshop space, hosted by GreenspaceNYC. This year's lab will be held on virtually, on Zoom!
