ECo Mural Unveiling!

We are thrilled to announce the date for the unveiling of a new mural for our community, made by our very own Natalia Ruiz, NRC student!

 

Come and enjoy the unveiling, while snacking on a delicious samosa and chatting with other members of our community: November 22 at 1:15 pm first floor lobby of Holdsworth Hall.

 

Additional details about the mural from the artist:

This mural was inspired by Pachamama, or "The Earth Mother." It's an homage to both nature and humanity, and envisions a future where our relationship to the earth is reciprocal, integrated and balanced. Indigenous pedagogy across the American continents encourages us all to see the earth as a living being, much like ourselves, which is something I hope is conveyed in this piece

 

Sponsored by the Campus Climate Grant and the Environmental Conservation department.

 

Hope to see you all there!
