SUMMARY:Climate and Canvas
DESCRIPTION:Climate & Canvas is the culminating event of Gateway to the Great Outdoors’ (GGO) environmental arts program with students from Froebel Elementary School. Over several weeks\, students explored climate issues\, reflected on their connection to the environment\, and transformed their ideas into original sculptural works. The program combines environmental education with creative expression\, helping students understand their role in shaping a more sustainable future. \nTo celebrate their work\, we are hosting a free\, one-day public showcase on April 26th at the Contemporary Art Museum in St. Louis. Families\, friends\, and community members will be invited to experience the students’ sculptures and see how young artists are interpreting climate and environmental themes through art. \nThis event is made possible through community partnerships and sponsorships\, which support both the Climate & Canvas program and future opportunities for students to engage with environmental learning through the arts. By becoming a sponsor\, you help provide the resources that allow students to explore climate education in creative and meaningful ways while sharing their work with the broader community.

SUMMARY:Look Again: Uncovering St. Louis
DESCRIPTION:How do small changes alter how we see a place? In this interactive program\, participants will explore altered historical images of St. Louis—from photographs and paintings to maps and newspaper clippings—and try to “spot the difference.” Each image holds a story\, and once the difference is revealed\, we’ll dive into a conversation about what the image shows\, what’s missing and what it means\, drawing attention to change over time and uncovering unexpected layers of the city’s past. From the serious to the surprising\, each difference offers a window into the visual and cultural history of St. Louis.

SUMMARY:The Great Tornado of 1925
DESCRIPTION:A hundred years ago\, the deadliest tornado in American history originated in southern Missouri. Now known as the “Tri-State Tornado\,” the storm originated near Ellington and swept through southeast Missouri before crossing into Illinois and Indiana. The devastation of the Tri-State Tornado revealed flaws in the nation’s storm forecasting and reporting system that grew out of a lack of coordination and a misplaced desire to avoid public panic\, flaws that took decades to correct. This presentation uses contemporary accounts and images to re-create Missouri’s portion of “the forgotten storm.”
