CETI, in partnership with the Multnomah County Office of Sustainability, is delighted to invite you to our launch of Postcards from our Climate Resilient Future, an NEA Our Town creative placemaking project.
Postcards from Our Climate Resilient Future is an augmented placemaking project that visualizes community-designed actions to address Multnomah County’s Climate Plan. Through a series of interactive dynamic artworks (augmented murals, posters, postcards, and artifacts) Postcards depicts imaginative and hopeful visions of a just climate future. The project brings to life the voices and ideas of communities most impacted by environmental inequities and climate change in ways that are personal, poignant, and powerful, creating a storyscape accessible to all residents. Through Postcards from our Climate Resilient Future, CETI, Multnomah County, and our partners will share tactics and actions around the Climate Justice Plan, inspiring and mobilizing communities for environmental and social change.
We'll introduce the various creations (and a map), hidden all around the county to find and experience, that will be rolled out between November 22 and December 15.
Each creation is a response to community ideation sessions and the strategies and goals of Multnomah County's Climate Action Plan.
The event is free, but please, RSVP via Eventbrite.
