Join us in celebrating the opening of the 2024 Student Art Festival: Eco vs Ego. The afternoon will consists of family workshops, pop-up performances, and a guided tour by the students and artists whose work is on view.
The 2024 Student Art Festival: Eco vs Ego explores our symbiotic relationship with nature. Inspired by guest thought-leader, Edwina von Gal, the Festival asks students, schoolteachers, and artists to delve into topics such as needs/survival, infrastructure & growth; anthropomorphism & symbolism, and biophilia, through the practice of art, design, horticulture, and performance.
