Art Exhibition Opening: "Water, Water Everywhere: Paean to a Vanishing Resource"

Water is the world’s most crucial commodity and the basis for all earthly life. Its preservation and protection may be our greatest environmental challenge. The global water crisis affects everyone, from those lacking enough to those experiencing uncontrollable floods that wipe away homes and land and wildlife. <em>Water, Water, Everywhere </em>comprises 30-second to 30-minute films from&nbsp;45 artists worldwide exploring water issues from the political to the personal and from ethics to aesthetics. Film formats and delivery are wide ranging and include documentary, experimental, educational, humorous, solemn, animated, and acted.

<em>Water, Water, Everywhere </em>is traveling to arts, educational, environmental, science, and other organizations and institutions across the U.S., and is designed as a platform for discussion. The exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue which features a foreword by Global Water Partnership founder, Ismail Serageldin, an essay by Betsy Damon, founder and director of Keeper of the Waters, and an introduction by exhibition Curator Jennifer Heath. Exhibition through April 24.

Informal reception 5-7 pm.
