Virtual Climate Crisis Gallery is Open


We are pleased to announce that the virtual gallery has just gone live. Because of the large number of entries, we have a Gallery A and a Gallery B. The general groups of artists this year are adults, Baylor students, and younger students K-12.

The art exhibit should be accessed with computers only -- the gallery is not designed to be visited with cell phones or tablets.      

A few important points:
  • We ask all artists who submitted works for the show to go to our website (www.climatecrisisartexhibit.org) and view the show.
  • Please confirm that your entry or entries are present in Gallery A and/or B. Please let us know right away if something is missing. (Although we used utmost care, the gallery is technically a bit difficult to use and does not flag omissions or duplications.)
  • Also, please proof read your demographic info. if you find any errors let us know and we will fix it. Email Alan Northcutt at anorthc@aol.com.
  • Since the gallery will be active for at least 2 months, we wish for everything to be as accurate and tasteful as possible. Note that we will be making some small changes to the Galleries and website over the next few days.
  • Deepest thanks to all artists who utilized their talent and energy to speak out about the climate crisis through art.
  • Many thanks to Adrian Northcutt, whose computer skills were invaluable in building this virtual gallery.
To view the Gallery A and B, go to www.climatecrisisartexhibit.org. There you will find tabs for Gallery A, Gallery B and Vote for the People's Choice Award.
