[GEOG MAJORS] Marine Science – Ocean Arts workshop - Apply by March 1

[Nell Gross via geogu-l]

Dear Department of Geography,

I’m reaching out across the disciplinary divide! Geographers are some of the leading voices in environmental arts-sciences integration. Come join us!

MARINE SCIENCE, OCEAN ARTS: INTERDISCIPLINARY, INTERTIDAL INTERDEPENDENT<https://fhl.uw.edu/courses/training-workshops/marine-sciences-ocean-arts/>

WHAT IS THIS? An integrative workshop to address the ocean emergency. Participants will acquire rigorous skills in scientific and arts inquiry and expression, will pursue individual and collaborative interdisciplinary projects, and will emerge with a showcase work. Bring a project or idea to develop, or be inspired to start a new one.

WHY SHOULD I REGISTER? Because science needs arts and arts need science. Collaborating deepens our embodied and emotionally intelligent understanding and communication of the issues that are most important to us.

WHO’S COMING? This experiential workshop is co-facilitated by experienced educators and practitioners  Dr. Marjorie Wonham<https://fish.uw.edu/faculty/marjorie-wonham/> (marine biology, University of Washington) and Dr. Astrida Neimanis<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/ccgs.ok.ubc.ca/about/contact/astrida-neimanis/__;!!K-Hz7m0Vt54!kG_BrYVeTB3piMQiG2EfYvBRQq6oO6UxhcPQb4SFH2_gjYISkepe9Ob0aKoh9WqjgeS90xOFgWv-$> (gender, women, sexuality studies, and environmental arts, University of British Columbia).
