Mission Statement

Gabrielle Levine and David Russell will attempt to facilitate a dialogue between two local community based organizations paired with two youth based organizations. Algalita Marine Research Foundation will present a program to Crossroads School for Arts and Sciences, and Surfrider Foundation will present a program to the Pico Youth and Family Center. An exhibition at the 18th Street Art Center will serve as a communication forum where youths from each group can utilize their creative voice to express their environmental concerns about plastic pollution in the community at large. The future generation of Santa Monica will create art projects that demonstrate their understanding of the environmental repercussions of single use plastics in our ocean. The visual presentation of ocean pollution, comprised of plastic objects and documentation materials displayed in the gallery, will visually influence its viewers to incorporate sustainability into their daily lives.
