SUMMARY:Arts & Ecology Festival: Creative Resistance
DESCRIPTION:On Earth Day\, UC Santa Cruz launches the inaugural Arts & Ecology Festival: Creative Resistance\, a campus-wide gathering that refuses to treat climate change as a problem of carbon alone. Instead\, it brings together artists\, scientists\, students\, and community partners to engage the deeper conditions of the crisis\, and to open space for cultural\, political\, and imaginative transformations grounded in repair\, reciprocity\, and collective futures. \nTaking place at the Digital Arts Research Center (DARC)\, the festival unfolds as a full day of exhibitions\, film screenings\, performances\, workshops\, talks\, and public engagement. Developed through an open call that drew an overwhelming response across disciplines\, the program reflects a growing field of practitioners working across environmental research\, land-based knowledge\, climate resistance\, and practices of repair that move beyond dominant institutional and economic frameworks. Tacos Los Reyes food truck will be on site during the festival. \nThe UC Santa Cruz Arts & Ecology Festival is sponsored by UCSC Art Department\, OpenLab Collaborative Research Center\, and UC Climate Action Arts Network\, with support from the University of California\, Office of the President’s Multicampus Research Programs and Initiatives grant program.\n—\nADMISSION\n– Free and open to the public\n—\nFULL SCHEDULE OF EVENTS\nEarth Day Festival\nWed.\, April 22\, 10:00 a.m.–10:00 p.m.\nvarious locations throughout the Digital Arts Research Center (DARC)\nEarth Week Film Screenings\nMon..

SUMMARY:Harriet: Performing Anarchive
DESCRIPTION:Through motion capture\, immersive sound\, and real-time digital systems\, CHARI (Dr. Chari Smith) performs alongside Harriet\, a life-scale avatar carrying a living archive of Black sonic and vernacular memory. Drawing from Black archival traditions rooted in call-and-response\, improvisation\, and communal stewardship\, the performance understands memory as relational and alive. Together\, our movements shape the environment as the performance unfolds\, images shift\, sound expands\, and memory surfaces in fragments. \nPerforming Anarchive turns the stage into a threshold between body and code\, memory and possibility. It imagines a future where technology is not distant or extractive\, but intimate\, attentive\, and alive. \n\nRsvp and reserve a seat via Eventbrite \n\n\n\nParking: \nPerformance Arts Lot\nPermits Accepted: A\, N\, MC\, ADA\, Medical\, Reserved\,\nParkmobile: Zone 15158\n\n\nThis performance was made possible in part through grant funding from Investing in Artists: Artistic Innovation at The Center for Cultural Innovation\, the Arts Division\, and the Arts Research Institute.
