The Art of Sustainability - Community Art with Jay Mead

Join visiting artist Jay Mead to create community art to commemorate 50 Years of Environmental Education and Leadership at Middlebury! Jay will be working on the lawn between Franklin Environmental Center and Proctor all day October 1 & 2, so stop by and participate at any time. Jay will be working on Hot and Cold, a sapling sculpture designed to be a meditation on climate change, and Hope Wheels, a project that will allow the Middlebury community to express what they care about in a rapidly changing world.

Combining his art with a quest to better understand sustainability has been a natural progression in Jay’s evolution as an artist (http://www.jaymead.net/). He believes that we need to have fun with sustainability and that it could become so integrated into our lives that we will rarely have to mention it. Come join in the fun!
