Tom Toles, Art, and the Environment: Panel Discussion - October 21

Buffalo’s own Tom Toles, Pulitzer Prize–winning globally syndicated editorial cartoonist, will participate in a panel discussion with fellow artists Alberto Rey, Joan Linder, and Thomas Aquinas Daly on the intersections of the environment, sustainable values, current events, and art on Friday, October 21, from 3:00 to 4:30 p.m. in the Burchfield Penney Art Center's Peter and Elizabeth C. Tower Auditorium.

Panelists will address how art can act as an important forum for discussing the environment. The event will be an open conversation during which students, faculty, and staff can share their own ideas. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to speak candidly with the Washington Post cartoonist and other local artists about how art and other means of communication can help influence current events. The conversation will have something for everyone: art, culture, politics, environmental science, and more. 

This event is free and open to the campus community. Please contact Faherty Nielsen, executive assistant, 878-6012, with questions.
