Cultural Reforesting – voices of the ecosystem
Visit Orleans House Gallery and download the Echoes App to enjoy a series of free conversations as you walk through the grounds.
These conversations explore the question, how do we renew our relationship with nature? Listen to artists, scientists and other researchers as they explore the topic.
This is part of the Cultural Reforesting programme. Cultural Reforesting is a series of artist-led, multi-disciplinary projects, looking at the ecological crises of our time. Scientists have marked this decade as the crucial 10 years in which to find solutions. Indeed, Richmond Council declared Climate Emergency in 2019, so what can we all do?
Download the app and listen in.
