The next issue of Roots will focus on the powerful synergy between art, conservation and education. We invite you to share how art can inspire conservation and shape educational experiences. Do you have examples of how artistic expression has been used to raise awareness for conservation or enhance learning experiences? Have you utilized art to address environmental challenges? Are you working on a project that demonstrates how creativity in art can drive awareness and action in conservation and education in your botanic garden? Whether through visual arts, performances or digital media, we would like to feature your innovative projects that showcase the meaningful impact of art in your garden’s conservation and education projects.

To contribute, please send a 100-word abstract to annelies.andringa-davis@bgci.org by 17th February 2025.
