About this event

Making it in the Anthropocene - A new way of doing and being.

Join artists, thinkers, makers, and doers to explore how we live, work, and create in a world where the climate crisis touches everything.

Through keynote presentations, fireside virtual chats, and Q&A, we'll hear from folks around the world on what it means to be made in the Anthropocene - a geologic era marked by humanity's harmful impact on Earth's climate and ecosystems.
