Mapping dreams of the futureWhen you were in grade six, what did you imagine the future = would=20 be? Fresh! A Map of a Dream of a Future (Fresh) = was an=20 ambitious two and a half year long collaboration by Tasmanian = Regional=20 Arts and the University of Tasmania to engage young people, = academics and=20 the arts community to develop a positive vision for addressing = climate=20 change issues in the future. Program creator, Associate Professor Elaine Stratford said the=20 Fresh curriculum uses stories and a series of art-based=20 activities to encourage participants to think about climate change = solutions. "The Fresh curriculum has been sent to every year five = and six=20 class in Tasmania and deployed through regional art gallery = holiday=20 programs," Associate Professor Elaine Stratford said. "Based in 2090 in a low tech coastal setting, Fresh =

story of three kids, Ruby, Ken=E9 and you." In classrooms across Tasmania, a themed story on each of the = topics was=20 read aloud to students who were then encouraged to produce = stories,=20 drawings and postcards for key decision makers in their = communities The students were also asked to answer a two page questionnaire = on=20 various matters related to climate change. Their answers were used = by=20 artist Nic Low to develop a virtual world for the Junction 2010 = National=20 Regional Arts Conference, held in Launceston last September. Nic created an extraordinary hanging garden installation at the = Conference, where each plant, suspended over water, represented a = young=20 person=92s response to the climate change questionnaire. Young arts workers, Heidi Douglas, Josie Hurst and Nadine = Kessler, ran=20 several Fresh workshops in a number of regional = communities for=20 young people to stimulate creative ideas and solutions to climate = change=20 issues. The resulting artworks were displayed in exhibitions of = interest=20 to parents and local communities. The Tasmanian Climate Change Office was a proud sponsor of the=20 Fresh! A Map of a Dream of a Future project. Other = sponsors=20 included the Department of Education, the Federal Department of=20 Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts, Arts Tasmania and the=20 Australian National Commission for = UNESCO. |
