Event | January 29 | Art, Design & Sustainability: A Dialogue

Following last summer’s event, Art and the Environment: A Dialogue, SAM and the Cascade Land Conservancy present the next panel discussion exploring the intersection of art, culture and the environment. How can artists and design professionals support today's cities and make them more functional, culturally rich and sustainable? What are the near-term priorities in sustainable design? What steps can be taken to support designers and businesses furthering sustainable design principles? Join us as we consider these and other questions.
