Using the power of art for climate action.
Through active engagement in art and collaboration with like-minded organizations, we foster awareness, dialogue, and advocacy about climate change and environmental issues.
Summer Climate Art Events Are Coming!
120 people attended the April 2026 Art Show, “Art as Inquiry,” with Climate Co-lab
Artists for Climate Awareness hosted a show of climate art in the Arts Alliance Center in Bloomington, Indiana and online. The exhibition, named “Art as Inquiry”, was on displayed from April 2-29 at the Pillar Arts Alliance Center in the College Mall, Bloomington, IN.
- TWO receptions at Pillar Arts Center, hosted about 120 guests:
- The reception for Art as Inquiry art, April 12, included “Nature Walk” musical performance, and prizes were awarded; again on April 19, the Reception for Climate Co-lab included new artworks along with art with Art as Inquiry art, also followed by “Nature Walk” performance and then art viewing and reception
We inspire people to action by increasing awareness, activism, and communication about climate change through workshops, performances, events, and online art.
Studies show that artistic expression can change behavior more than words. We, as artists, know that art affects people at a visceral level. Using art, we can transform climate paralysis into positive action. In short, we can harness this powerful way of communication to save the earth.

Our Story
In late 2021 and early 2022, a dozen or so artists in the Midwest gathered together to discuss scientists’ projections of impending devastation of the earth, its inhabitants, and its resources. We decided to do what we know best: inspire others through art and conversation.
With that idea, we are planning art workshops, shows, and media experiences to express our collective experience of climate change. We work in partnership with value-aligned organizations and artists in the U.S.
Our offering is not just art, though; everyone who participates in our events receives a Climate Action Toolkit consisting of ways to help, expressed in actions that people feel comfortable doing.
