The PETAL Project
The PETAL Project (Participatory Environmentalism Through Art & Learning) provides opportunities to take part in cultivating environmental care and concern in our communities, while developing actions aimed at protecting the environment. We combine the expressions of our creativity and imagination with the development of environmental knowledge and community building skills. We are a shared community of environmentalists, educators, ecologists, naturalists, activists, artists, creative placemakers, and community builders that seek to cultivate environmental action and nurture caring relationships with the living and nonliving entities we share the environment with.
Mausoleum Seals
