Greetings,
I am emailing to announce Jungle Life, a
new Art+Science opportunity happening this June, aimed at creatively
exploring the diverse wildlife of South India and Thailand! The ART+BIO
Collaborative, an educational nonprofit based in Cambridge, MA, offers
various Field Studies of Art+Nature. We integrate art and the life
sciences via public engagement, education, and research. We value
diversity and inclusion in the arts and sciences, and design
novel travel programs for artists, scientists, students, educators,
professionals and for anyone interested in integrating nature, art, and
biology in the wild.
Please
consider applying to Jungle Life and help spread the word about this
incredible opportunity to anyone who may be interested.
Here are the details:
JUNGLE LIFE: Field Studies of Art+Nature in South India and Thailand
This
program focuses on creative exploration of the unique and lush jungle
environments of the Western Ghats of South India and the tropical island
of Koh Lon, Thailand. Through hands-on observation, artistic
interpretation, collaboration, and various biological and natural
history methods, we will utilize the natural habitat as a STUDIO+LAB to
explore and make informed art about tropical plants, animals, and
nature. During the program, we will stay at various field sites and
provide an immersive, project-based experience, focused on the unique
beauty and dense wilderness of the jungle.
There
are limited spaces available. Those interested are highly encouraged to
apply today. Please click on the link for photos and more information.
Thank you for helping us to spread the word about this unique
opportunity, and don't hesitate to let me know if you have any
questions!
