Artist Talk “From Art to Activism” talk hosted by Arts Wellesley and Sustainable Wellesley
Wednesday, October 9, 2024
7:00 PM 8:00 PM
Wellesley Free Library/Wakelin Room 530 Washington street Wellesley
Join Rebecca McGee Tuck for an engaging and transformative journey as she shares her personal journey from creator to activist. This talk follows her artistic timeline of creating sculpture to catalyzing change. This will include how her path led her to the wrack line where I began collecting debris, sparking a passion for environmental protection. We will delve into pivotal moments that brought her to seek out groups dedicated to the environmental ideals she was aiming for, the Surfrider Foundation Massachusetts Chapter being one of the more influential. She will illustrate how each step she took, picking up the traces of human made pollution led her to the steps of the Capitol Building in Washington D.C. This talk is not just a narrative, it's an invitation for you to explore your own potential for positive change and discover the impact that individual actions can have on our shared environment.
The event is co-sponsored with Sustainable Wellesely and is free to the public.
Please sign up in advance.
