Lewicki and Vílchez will share stories and wisdom gained from two years of artistic and philanthropic travel across the USA and Mexico, including the challenges and joys of living a nomadic lifestyle aboard a mobile, off-grid tiny home.
Art We There Yet is an initiative to create art and music inspired by the Americas, while supporting public arts programming in underserved communities along the way. Aboard a bus-turned-professional recording and art studio, artists José Luis Vílchez and Cora Rose are traveling 30,000 miles from Alaska to Argentina over the course of 7+ years. The aim of the project is two-fold. First, to create a vast portfolio of photography, music, and film celebrating the diverse landscapes and peoples of the Americas. Second, to provide free community murals and arts workshops in communities that lack access to arts funding.
The COA Human Ecology Forum is a free, weekly speaker series based on the work of the academic community, which also draws on scientists, artists, poets, and political and religious leaders from around the world. In celebration of COA’s 50th academic year in 2021-22, the forum is focused on guests from the COA alumnx community. This forum will be in hybrid format with the option to view the bus in person. Please check your email for the Zoom link and more details.
