Ecohumanities for Cities in Crisis: A Public Event Series Bringing Miami Together to Discuss Our Future

May 15, 2016 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

FIU SEAS and FIU CARTA Artist-in-Residence Xavier Cortada will be one of three speakers to discuss art, environmentalism and activism as part of Ecohumanities for Cities in Crisis: A Public Event Series Bringing Miami Together to Discuss Our Future.

Explore the challenges Miami faces from climate change through culture and history. Join local scholars and environmentalists for stories about our connections to this unique and fragile landscape. How can we come together to imagine our future and prioritize what is most valuable, just, and worthy of preservation? What is at risk right now and how can we build resilient communities? Share your stories and hear new ones.
