How dare you! Student Arts Expo

Nelson Tasman Climate Forum

/ Nov 5, 2021

Calling all kids who are mad as hell about the lack of progress on climate change! The Nelson Tasman Climate Forum is inviting the region’s under-18s to take their frustration and channel it into art.

The How Dare You! Student Arts Expo+ is giving tamariki the chance to express their emotions, ideas and demands through a myriad of artistic mediums. So much more than an arts expo, the event at Founders Heritage Park on December 11 and 12 is being billed as a place where kids can connect with likeminded and proactive people who will listen to their concerns.
Pretty much anything goes: film, photography, sculpture, paintings, poetry, creative writing, design, you name it! Incentives include $50 spot prizes and more. Ciara Higginbotham (right) and Elie Hill are into it and keen to see heaps of other people entering too. Ciara’s already started working on hers; an image of the earth with The Arctic melting in the shape of a skull!
Feel free to share far and wide. Entry details below.
