Taking risks with art can be daunting, particularly when addressing some of humanity’s most pressing issues like climate change. We believe that these creative pioneers and leaders are a necessary part of affecting change: they have collectively reached billions of viewers of their work. How have they done it and what makes it worth the risk?

Join us for a panel discussion as we navigate through the catalysts that inspire positive change in the art world. This lively panel will be moderated by Amir Mortazavi, CANOPY CEO and co-founder. Panelists include Dustin Yellin of Pioneer Works, Ben Von Wong of Impact Everywhere and Academy Award-winning filmmaker and Executive Director of the Oceanic Preservation Society, Louie Psihoyos.

Our ability to support artists, writers, educators and scientists pursuing experimental projects depends on your support. Your contributions allow us to produce interdisciplinary programs, publish exciting work by new writers and offer residency space in a collaborative environment. Click here to donate.

A special thank you to For Good Ventures‘ Kim Kolt for bringing these remarkable panelists together.
