Inner and Outer Transformations: The Climate Crisis By Olive Toran

December 15 @ 2:00 pm - 6:00 pm

Inner and Outer Transformations: The Climate Crisis,” by Olive Toran, is an immersive multimedia exhibition that weaves fine art photography, poetry, live music, and community climate engagement activities into a cohesive experience. At its core is Olive’s journey, reflecting the synergy between personal healing and climate action. Invoking spiritual solutions through poetry, song, and music—expressions rooted in her healing journey—Olive illustrates how inner transformation can inspire outer change. This ongoing dialogue between self and environment suggests that nurturing personal well-being can spark systemic transformation. Exploring the multimedia displays invites visitors to reconnect with nature, foster resilience against eco-paralysis, and deepen their commitment to environmental and social change.

Sunday, December 15th, 2:00 pm-6:00 pm 
2-5pm Exhibit viewing and climate adaptation activity,
5 – 6pm live music and Q&A

Olive is a force on the front line of climate action, leveraging her 12 years of expertise as a Communication Specialist and Climate Adaptation researcher having worked in Africa, Asia, Europe and the Caribbean, to drive meaningful change. Olive has dedicated herself to addressing the urgent challenges posed by human-induced climate change by crafting compelling narratives that amplify the urgency of the climate crisis and calling for collective knowledge and action to foster context specific, people centered climate solutions.
