About the Festival Every spring since 1995, the Wild Garden Media Centre, based in the Faculty of Environmental Studies at York University, has hosted and coordinated the Eco Art & Media Festival. This is a multi-day event to celebrate and share diverse forms of creative expression with the goal of inspiring public discussion, engagement and dialogue around a specific, changing environmental/social theme. As a campus-wide and community event, the Eco Art & Media Festival is co-sponsored with other faculties and departments, as well as non-profit organizations that share our vision of various forms of community art for education and social change. The 16th annual Eco-Art and Media Festival takes place in the first week of March. Held annually by the Wild Garden Media Centre and the Faculty of Environmental Studies Eco Art and Media festival showcases diverse forms of artistic expression around environmental, media and social issues. Urban Realities: Exploring Ecologies of Space, Place, & Culture
Cultural conventions often influence the design of spaces and places. However, a
city is not only defined by its architecture and design but by the people,
practitioners of diverse cultures, who fill those spaces and complete the
design.
Please join us as we explore the theme “Urban Realities: Ecologies of Space, Place, and Culture.”

The Wild Garden
Media Centre team, as part of the Faculty of Environmental Studies,

environmental impact at every stage of the planning and execution
process, while maximizing the social impact for all participants.
