[Livable Future LIVE] Creative Activism: Using Art to Protect Our Planet

Art can be a powerful tool for social change. From illustrated protest signs to murals, photography, and public installations, art can educate and engage viewers with a cause.

Food & Water Watch is fighting to ensure safe food, clean water and a livable climate for all. Art can be a powerful way to show both the harm done to our planet and the beauty we’re fighting to protect – all while providing an outlet for climate anxiety. Join us for a discussion with artists about how they use their art for environmental activism to protect our planet.

**Speakers Include:**

* **Emily Robinson,** a Florida-based artist who turns plastic she pulls from the ocean into art pieces to raise awareness about plastic pollution (see her work on Instagram @plasticpresents)
* **David Solnit,** art organizer and climate justice activist who centers art in mass mobilizations (see him in action on Instagram @davidsolnit)
