Sixth Annual Eco-Design Arts Conference
>THE ECOLOGY OF HOME<
April 13-16, 2000
H.O.P.E.S. is an interdisciplinary student organization dedicated to
creating sustainable communities and environments. Each year we host
the Eco Design Arts Conference at the University of Oregon's School
of Architecture and Allied Arts. It is an opportunity for
participants to network, collaborate, and share ideas about the
relationships between design and ecology. Events include workshops,
lectures, panel discussions, exhibitions, a design charette, and more.
This year's H.O.P.E.S. conference will strive to bring sustainability
into the mainstream of our culture. It will provide a forum for
sharing local solutions to global problems by celebrating grassroots
efforts around the country and around the world. We will use our
home, Eugene, Oregon, as a model to explore the challenges facing the
diverse and spirited communities that are at a crossroads of
environmental change.
As citizens, designers, artists, and visionaries, we all play active
roles in shaping the livability and sustainability of our communities.
We invite you to bring your own stories, experiences, and ideas to the
conference. We believe that your solutions can lead the world towards
realizing a new and continued commitment to the places we call home.
