Crafting Change through Art: Join the Marine Debris Transformation Retreat Nov. 3-5

Posted on October 16, 2023 by Editor

Heart of Cartm, in partnership with Oregon Arts Commission is excited to announce the upcoming “Marine Debris Transformation Retreat.” This immersive and inspiring retreat is set to take place from November 3-5, providing a unique opportunity for individuals passionate about coastal conservation, art, and positive change. Marine debris is a pressing issue affecting communities worldwide, and our coastal haven is no exception. At this retreat, marine debris becomes a symbol of transformation. Whether you’re an artist, a scientist, or someone who simply cares about the coastline, this weekend promises to be a catalyst for change. Attendees will create powerful works of art and writing that can inspire change.

Friday, November 3rd, 3:00-6:00 is the Leaders Lecture with Elizabeth Roberts, marine debris artist and clean oceans advocate; Courtney Edwards, Elakha Alliance; Jesse Jones, Oregon Shores; Denise Harrington, 2022 Teacher at Sea for NOAA and Wendy Jackson, American and British psychotherapist. You may purchase a ticket just for the Friday lecture.

On Saturday morning, attendees of the weekend retreat will conduct a NOAA Marine Debris Monitoring Assessment shoreline survey, gathering crucial data for future conservation efforts. Then, take their finds back to the Heart of Cartm workshop for transformation. On Sunday morning, attendees will engage in writing and group discussions.

This isn’t just a retreat. Together, attendees and leaders are contributing to a movement of impactful strategies to combat marine debris locally and globally. Your voice and creativity are essential. By participating in this retreat, you directly contribute to Heart of Cartm’s vision of a dynamic culture focused on actively using waste as a resource for social, economic and creative benefit.

Reserve a seat for the weekend – November 3-5, 2023, or just the Friday, Nov 3rd Leaders Lecture. Seats are limited. To reserve your spot and learn more, visit our website at www.heartofcartm.org/marinedebris or contact us at 503-664-0446.
