With growing momentum across the cultural sector to address the climate emergency, artists are a leading voice in communicating the urgency of the crisis and the need for radical action. But what is the role of institutions in initiating and supporting this change?
Join us to explore this question with David Buckland, founding Director of Cape Farewell, and Rosie Cooper, Director at Wysing Arts Centre. Hear them discuss the importance of engaging artists their programmes, the role artists have in educating audiences and the road to implementing changes in practice that move us towards a decarbonised future.
After so long working with a global focus, in the light of the climate emergency many arts organisations are looking to bring a more local focus to their programming. Having joined Wysing Arts Centre in 2021 as Director, Rosie Cooper will share her vision for the future of the institution and details of their newly launched environmental strategy.
Operating at the intersection of art and science, collaboration is at the heart of the Cape Farewell programme. The organisation was founded by David Buckland in 2001 with a mission to convey the urgency of climate change with simplicity and directness. How has the political and cultural landscape on climate issues changed since its launch? And what will the legacy of organisations like Cape Farewell be?
