Our purpose is to sustain and encourage the growth of a vibrant and diverse community at the intersection of the arts, activism/social justice, and the environment. Over 4 years during the pandemic we held the online Authors & Artists Festival, bringing together a passionate group of creatives and citizens to celebrate nature and share ideas about how to live sustainably and respectfully on earth. This year we are taking a small group, in-person approach in order to inspire people who love the land into action. Everyone is asking "what can we do?" and we can help answer that question from the nexus of arts, environment, and social justice: by using poetry to inspire, and providing practical information about how individuals can help conserve land from development in Franklin County, Massachusetts. We believe that the arts have a key role to play in moving people to action (for examples of artivism, see: https://www.nature-culture.net/artivism), and having developed an audience with our online festival, we are pairing with local land trust professionals ready to help people accomplish their goal of conserving land.
