SustainABILITY
Traveling Exhibit opens at the San Jose Museum of Quilts & Textiles on Thursday, January 16th through Sunday, April 6th.
Thursdays, Fridays | 1 pm to 5 pm
Saturdays, Sundays | 11 am to 5 pm
How do we balance humanity's needs and desires against preserving our planet for future generations? This question is at the heart of Sustainability, which addresses some of today's most pressing environmental issues, such as the effect of plastic pollution on our oceans, and the immense amounts of waste generated by the fast fashion industry.
All of the artwork in some way illustrates our complex interconnectedness with nature. Some pieces expose the ugly, and often unnoticed, impact of our present way of life; others capture the essence of what makes our world so beautiful, reminding us of the irreplaceable treasures we could potentially lose forever.
