Earth Celebrations’ ECOLOGICAL CITY – Procession for Climate Solutions features a spectacular procession of visual art, giant puppets, costumes and 21 site performances celebrating climate solution initiatives throughout the community gardens, neighborhood and East River Park waterfront of the Lower East Side.
The pageant is the culmination of many months of collaborative art and creative engagement through workshops with residents, gardeners, artists, partner organizations and youth, to co-create visual art, performance, dance, music and poetry, that celebrate local sites and their climate solution initiatives. Ecological City is a cultural action to celebrate the Lower East Side’s inspiring ecosystem of urban climate solution initiatives and their importance to city and global climate challenges.
