Why S.O.S.?
Media outlets, political figures, and retailers alike proclaim that today’s most complex global challenges can be addressed with a single word: sustainability. The sustainability movement addresses some of our largest and most fearsome problems worldwide—global warming, natural, economic, political, and social change—and as a result permeates our everyday life.
The arts can be highly effective in posing solutions to our biggest global challenges. S.O.S. invites you to join a list of renowned speakers and participants in the increasingly pressing conversation about what it means to sustain our planet, our culture, and our creative enterprise.
