Welcome artists and authors, Annie Sprinkle and Beth Stephens for an amorous path to saving the planet.

They are authors of the Ecosex Manifesto and producers of the award-winning film Goodbye Gauley Mountain and Water Makes Us Wet, a documentary feature that premiered at documenta 14 and screened at MoMA in New York.

Sundance Film Festival Shorts Film Tour

The 2021 Sundance Film Festival Short Film Tour is a 92-minute theatrical program of 7 short films selected from the 2021 Sundance Film Festival program, widely considered the premier showcase for short films and the launchpad for many now-prominent independent filmmakers for close to 40 years. Including fiction, documentary, and animation from around the world, the 2021 program offers new audiences a taste of what the Festival offers and shows that short films transcend traditional storytelling.

Virtual Art Bite: Until Proven Safe

Join us for an exploration of the landscapes of quarantine with authors—and Center for Art + Environment advisors—Geoff Manaugh and Nicola Twilley. Their new book, Until Proven Safe, was begun long before COVID-19. Together, they track the history and future of quarantine around the globe, chasing the story of emergency isolation through time and space—from the crumbling lazarettos of the Mediterranean, built to contain the Black Death, to an experimental Ebola unit in London, and from the hallways of the CDC to closed-door simulations where pharmaceutical execs and epidemiologists prepare for the outbreak of a novel coronavirus.  

Program support and free program registration for students from the Core Humanities Program at the University of Nevada, Reno.
