Call for participants: Creating art for social change around the environmental issues we care about

Be part of our next community art collaboration!

Our community art project, From Harm to Harmony, continues this spring with Phase 3, offering a new opportunity for artists of all backgrounds and skill levels to get involved in this inspiring initiative!

The Conservation Council’s artist-in-residence, Kristin Singh, will lead a new cohort of artists looking to turn their concerns about climate change and environment degradation in New Brunswick into messages of hope and action in their community. 

Singh is a multidisciplinary community-engaged environmental artist and activist graciously living on the unceded and unsurrendered territories of the Wǝlastǝkewiyik/Wolastoqiyik (Maliseet), Mi’kmaq/Mi’kmaw and Peskotomuhkati.  Her arts practice is dedicated to social change in the areas of environmental sustainability and gender equality.

We only have space for 12 participants in this phase.

Participants will meet online regularly with Singh to scope out the project, determine the topics and themes to explore, and then create their art pieces.  The possibilities for sharing work include blogs, published work, online distribution of music and video content, and art installations. 

This art project will benefit from diverse and intergenerational participation. If you are interested, please register using the form below!

Registration is now closed.

Kristin Singh artist-in-residency is part of the FUTURES/forward community-engaged arts mentorship program, funded by the Canada Council for the Arts, BC Arts Council, and Judith Marcuse Projects.

FUTURES/forward is an initiative of the International Centre of Art for Social Change (ICASC) and Judith Marcuse Projects (JMP), an arts organization with a 40+ year history in Canada and abroad and a pioneer in the field of art for social change (ASC). Special thanks to Pierre Leichner for his mentorship.
