“Public Art and Climate Change:  Learning from “High Tide”

Professors Carolina Aragón and Elisabeth Hamin, from the University of Massachusetts Amherst, are conducting a research project to understand to role of public art in communicating about climate change. We would like to invite North End neighborhood residents over the age of 18, to join us for a small group discussion about the recent “High Tide” art installation on the RFK Greenway. The feedback from the group will be used to design guidelines for public artists interested in communication about issues such as climate change.

We will be offering light snacks and a signed photograph of the “High Tide” installation to participants of the focus group.
