PLANET OR PLASTIC?

A SERIES OF SEVEN LECTURES IN SUPPORT OF
CAN’T YOU SEA? | OCEAN PLASTIC ARTIFACTS
AN EXHIBITION FEATURING  SIX NOTED ARTISTS WORKING WITH RECLAIMED PLASTIC OCEAN DEBRIS
JUNE 15 – SEPTEMBER 8, 2019

In just a few short years ocean plastic debris has become a topic of worldwide concern.  Initially a few voices were raised, mainly grassroots in origin, and some of the most powerful were visual artists.  Now the chorus is loud, and though the problem is massive, corrective strategies are being discussed and implemented in ever widening circles.   This lecture series is designed to bring you voices of experience, some who have been in the forefront of ocean preservation for decades.  Attendees will meet artists, authors, researchers, state and local activists, educators and filmmakers.  Topics raised in the exhibition will be probed more deeply, and opportunities to become a solution (rather than a pollution) activist will be explored.

Lectures will now be held at the Art Museum located at 3100 S. Ocean Blvd Myrtle Beach, SC 29577.

All lectures (unless otherwise noted) will begin at 2 p.m.

All lectures are $10 per person and reservations are necessary; please see reservation details at the end of this information.
