Virtual Educator Evening: Ciel Bergman: Sea Full of Clouds
While teaching art at the University of California, Santa Barbara during the 1980s, artist Ciel Bergman discovered increasing amounts of plastic trash washing up on the local beaches. Bergman conceived the idea of recycling waste plastic to create a sustainable road paving material to reduce our dependence on oil. Join Curator of Learning and Engagement, Megan Bellister, and explore how an artist addressed a global challenge with creativity and innovation. Learn to challenge and inspire fellow educators and students to be active problem-solvers.
Educator Evenings are a FREE professional development series hosted both in-person and virtually, offering state-approved professional development hours for participation. Professional development hours are available for participating in the Educator Evenings and issued upon request.
