Earth Day Art Model (https://earthdayartmodel.org/) is an online, interactive, global telematic and media event held on International Earth Day. The free-admission festival highlights current artistic perspectives ranging from scientific observation to creative works of music and intermedia. Over 24 hours, on April 22, the festival will stream live/fixed performances and works by musicians, artists, writers, and others as they engage the natural world in artistic illumination and thoughtful discussion. This year’s festival theme, “The Local Earth”, will highlight expressions focused upon our awareness of the immediate world in which we live, work, and create. Last year’s festival was viewed by individuals from 40 countries, with artists and presenters from 22 countries across 5 continents.  Audiences enjoy online interactivity and communication throughout the event. For an example of the festival, please visit the archived 2022 Earth Day Art Model.

Earth Day Art Model is sponsored and presented by Deck 10 Media with additional support from the Donald Louis Tavel Arts Technology Research Center at the Purdue School of Engineering and Technology, IUPUI.
