350.org Earth Art – Climate Art Visible From Space!

Take part in this exciting international event organized by 350.org. RSVP on Facebook – http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=128447003878938

November 20-28, 350 EARTH will become the first-ever art exhibit large enough to be seen from space.

WHAT: Join us in celebrating EARTH in Vancouver by taking part in a massive art piece that will be photographed by satellite on Sunday 21 November. Hundreds of people dressed in green (or with green umbrellas) will form the image of a green footprint on a green field, and we need you to be part of the image!

WHERE: David Lam Park, Pacific Boulevard, Vancouver
WHEN: Sunday, 21 November, 2010. 9:30-11:30am.

WHY: UN Climate Negotiations kick off in Cancun one week later, and this is a chance to come together creatively to rise to the climate challenge.

ATTIRE: The goal is to create a green footprint out of people, so please be sure to wear green clothes OR bring a green umbrella. And this photograph will be taken rain or shine, so come prepared for the weather!

GETTING THERE: If driving, please be sure to carpool; parking is first-come, first-served. If biking, take the seawall bike path to David Lam Park. For public transportation, the nearest Canada line station is Yaletown Roundhouse (<5 min walk); or take the C21 bus and get off at Homer and Pacific Blvd.
