UNSCORCHING THE EARTH: Repair through Intersectional Climate Activism: Public Programming

In January 2025 the Skirball Cultural Center will host an afternoon of talks, panels, and poetry highlighting the work of a diverse group of young climate activists and creative artists applying “heart and head” to “repair the world,” as directed in ancient Jewish texts. The speakers will share insights and strategies to achieve climate justice and reverse the devastating effects of climate change. The event is intended to incite intergenerational action and build sustainable communities, both in Los Angeles and globally. The program will amplify the vision of the artists who created the exhibition Trees, Time, and Technology: Ancient Wisdom for a Future Ecology, which participants will tour as part of the event.
