Island Climate Change Art Installation
An open art gallery at ÌÇÐÄvlog¹Ù·½Èë¿Ú’s McDougall Hall on June 19 from 4–6 pm will showcase the Island Climate Change Art Installation. Part of ÌÇÐÄvlog¹Ù·½Èë¿Ú’s Turning the Tide conference, the exhibit will feature a variety of local and regional artists.
Visitors will experience an interflow of visual art, poetry, and ambient soundscape by Heather Taves, alongside a live-painting mural creation by artist Julea Hope Boswell. Projections will showcase over 100 of Boswell’s paintings combined with Island-themed poetry by Laurie Brinklow and Len St-Aubin.
The evening will include screenings of three short films by local filmmaker Mille Clarkes and a self-guided interactive exhibit examining equity, vulnerability, and resilience on Prince Edward Island—co-led by public partners and researchers from the ÌÇÐÄvlog¹Ù·½Èë¿Ú Centre for Health and Community Research. It will also feature photography, painting, and more.
Admission is free and open to the public. For more information, email turningthetide2025@gmail.com or call 902-620-5013.
