Eco Art Lab is an eco-collective of students and faculty at SUNY New Paltz. Through collaboration, sustainable practices, and socially engaged design, the collective cultivates biodiverse art and spaces that foster ecological awareness and community connection.
Join the Eco Art Lab Collective for a day of creative eco-exploration. Together, we’ll slow down, observe, and reconnect with the living world around us. Through hands-on activities, we’ll experiment with natural printmaking inks, home-made bioplastics, and accessible eco-stenciling techniques to connect with local biodiversity. We’ll create handmade paper infused with native pollinator seeds and then step outdoors for a guided foraging and plant-tagging walk, letting curiosity lead the way. This workshop is for all ages and offers space to reflect, play, and connect through creativity, curiosity, and care for the natural world.
Emily Puthoff, Morgan Tobio, and Carolann Paszek join me to discuss the exciting things they have planned for this eco arts weekend as well as the very special project that is the Eco Art Lab
