The evening will also feature acclaimed artist and designer Luana Rubin, joining us from Colorado. Known for her powerful textile art and visually stunning quilts, Luana’s work brings attention to critical issues including human rights, environmental justice, and wildlife conservation. In honor of World Environment Day 2026’s theme, “urgent climate action,” she’ll present her talk, “Art & Activism,” and showcase a curated selection of her pieces.
Come mingle, be inspired, and celebrate the intersection of art and environmental action—we can’t wait to see you there! 🌎💚
