Kathleen Mooney at the Muskegon Museum of Art

Please join us Friday evening 3/18/11 at the Muskegon Museum of Art for a special FREE event "The ART of Sustainability" featuring my art and photography from the Yellow Dog River. I will present my NEW 15 minute movie "Yellow Dog" with my photographs of the Yellow Dog River and my paintings and collages inspired by the environmental threats and damages to this wilderness area in Michigan's UP (music by Thom Jayne). I am excited to have this opportunity to share my inspiration from this beautiful river and participate in this powerful educational event - I hope you can make it!
Beginning at 5:30 we will have a reception, followed at 6:00 with presentations, an artists' panel discussion at 6:00 and networking at 8:30. Three artists – Kathleen Mooney, Curtis Frillmann and Lee Ann Frame will share how art and the environment are merging - art activism, making art from found objects and recycled materials. There will be a panel discussion sure to reveal insight to the simple steps each of us can take to make a positive impact on our environment.
This event is part of "Sustainability: A West Michigan Journey" a month-long series of sustainability-based activities sponsored by the West Michigan Symphony and supported by a number of organizations in West Michigan. The artist panel is co-sponsored by the West Michigan Symphony and the Muskegon Museum of Art.
Art can make a difference! Kathleen Mooney, ISEA
