Cautionary Tales: Climate Crisis & Indigenous Arts Symposium
9:00 AM – 4:30 PM
Cautionary Tales: Climate Crisis & Indigenous Arts is a one-day symposium that brings Indigenous artists and advocates into conversation about the climate crisis, which disproportionately affects Native communities “first and worst.” Coastal erosion, flooding, drought, wildfires, and severe storms threaten the well-being, lands, livelihoods, and arts of Indigenous peoples, with the impact being felt right now.
Featuring Diné ethnobotanist Arnold Clifford, Northern Chumash visual artist Leah Mata Fragua, Iñupiaq parka maker and climate initiatives program director Qataliña Jackie Schaeffer, and filmmaker, climate activist, and policy advocate Jade Begay (Tesuque/Diné/Southern Ute). With a reading by Iñupiaq poet dg nanouk okpik and a spoken word performance by IAIA students of Sheila Rocha’s Performance Poetry course.
