The UVA Environmental Resilience Institute’s Arctic CoLab is organizing the event, with assistance from the Arctic Research Consortium of the U.S. (ARCUS).
The first day (Monday, September 23rd) of the event will feature a symposium with invited speakers on arctic environmental sciences, social sciences, art, and architecture followed by an evening arctic-themed musical performance. The following two days of the event will be half-day workshops on four interdisciplinary themes (encompassing ecosystem science, art, built-environment, design, social sciences), with participation from established practitioners, student researchers, and Arctic Youth Ambassadors. The evening of Day 2 (Tuesday, September 24th) will feature an art exhibition at an on-grounds gallery.
