String Survey @Northern Spark | Minneapolis College of Art and Design

String Survey @Northern Spark

Background Stories design collective members Jack Becker ’76, Nichole Goodwell, Randy Walker and MASD Faculty Arlene Birt (’03), are exploring the current climate crisis through a community outreach project during this June's Northern Spark event.

String Survey invites participants to answer a series of questions about our current climate crisis and witness how their personal stance on the issue compares or contrasts with others’. Background Stories will create a fun, engaging, and interactive walk-through environment that grows throughout the night into an artistic visualization of participants’ collective thoughts and opinions on climate.

String Survey will take place during Northern Spark, a free, city-wide, all-night art festival exploring the effects of climate change through participatory projects happening in neighborhoods along Metro Transit’s Green Line.

Land Acknowledgement

The Minneapolis College of Art and Design (MCAD) acknowledges it is located on traditional, ancestral, and contemporary lands of Indigenous people. This is the ancestral homeland of the Dakota and Ojibwe people, who were forcibly exiled from the land because of aggressive and persistent settler colonialism. We recognize that this place has a complex and layered history. As a community dedicated to creativity, MCAD is committed to ongoing efforts to support and advocate for American Indian Nations and peoples.
