The VOICE Assembly explores how artistic practices can inspire calm, reflective responses to social and ecological crises. Audiences will experience a participatory Town Hall Meeting and artist-led workshop, creating a “quiet commons” for listening, care, and collective imagination. This interactive event offers an artistic counterpoint to panic-driven reactions, promoting thoughtful civic and environmental engagement aligned with global sustainability goals.
