Each spring, MEEC hosts an ecologically-themed show to help people connect with the world’s beauty, deepen our understanding of ecosystems and inspire actions for sustainability.  Artists (visual artists, writers and musicians) and educators of all ages and walks of life participate, and hundreds annually view the show through a visit to the gallery or participating in our associated indoor and outdoor programs.

The year's show explores environmental change and loss. Artists may reflect on disappearing landscapes and species, loss of knowledge and understanding, loss of culture, interrelatedness and/or reversing loss.

On Tuesday, December 9 from 7 p.m. - 9 p.m. at the University of Dayton's ArtStreet, MEEC staff and gallery volunteers will host an educational and reflective evening on the show theme for artists who wish to develop a piece for the show. We'll explore visual evidence of climate change and consider our roles in shaping past and future environmental trends. Time and studio space for artists to interact, discuss the theme, work on pieces and explore ideas will be provided.  Please bring your art tools and supplies with you. Visual artists, musicians and writers welcome. To register, contact MEEC by Thursday, December 4 at 937-429-3582 or email meec@udayton.edu.
