IMMA OUTDOORS: The Eco Festival is a four-day event of eco related programming showcasing the most exciting innovators in the field of eco citizen science, design & creativity, enabling intergenerational dialogue and empowering audiences to become agents of change.
The Festival will be deeply interwoven with themes of biodiversity and sustainability, a vibrant celebration of people, place and planet. It will use art to motivate audiences to become more climate positive in their everyday lives by combining inspiring artistic interventions with workshops, talks and events which demonstrate how small but mighty acts in the community can have an impact. It will plant the seeds of sustainability, enabling audiences, to participate, discuss and experiment, combining inspiring impactful commissions with civic exploration of eco creativity.
Experimentation, provocation, and research are at the heart of IMMA’s values and programmes. This showcase will explore the problems and dangers of the Anthropocene and responses to counteract those, through the lens of artists, story tellers, digital gamers, biologists, performers, designers, musicians, mathematicians, architects, and young people. The list of possibilities is endless.
