Eco-Renaissance

EcoArts Tours is calling all artists to get out of the studio and into the world! Founder Rosalyn Salters has bridged her passions for art and environmentalism in a initiative that seeks to “unify the arts and travel through environmentally sustainable, authentic and cross-cultural experiences.” Basically – all the stuff we love and promote.  Rosalyn believes that art and travel can work together to preserve eco-systems, cultures and art for future generations. There are four areas of focus: dance, music, cuisine and fine arts.  Itineraries include visits to cultural sites, discussions with artists and environmentalists, workshops etc.  Check out upcoming trips on their site, you can also suggest new destinations!

EcoArts also has a new intiative called Eco-Renaissance that connects the arts with sustainable travel, in order to inspire artistry that addresses sustainable issues around the world. They are currently accepting entries from professional artists in many fields, as well as looking for more partners – deadline is March 31st. Check it out!
