Simple or ingenious sustainable energy ideas wanted

KAMLOOPS – The BC Sustainable Energy Association (BCSEA) Kamloops chapter seeks submissions from the public of images, written pieces, artworks, or short videos for a free public exhibition at the Kamloops Art Gallery (KAG) called The Everyday Sustainable Energy Superheroes Exhibition.

The exhibition runs from January 14, 2017 to March 18 in the free BMO Open Gallery. The deadline for submissions is October 27, 2016.

The two main reasons for the exhibition are to share great ideas around using sustainable energy, and to celebrate the people who use it. The ideas can be ingenious, high-tech, simple or old-fashioned.

Examples of submissions can range from a picture of your business’s new solar photovoltaic installation, to a poem about your backyard organic garden; from a watercolour painting of your favourite trusty clothesline, to a short video about how much you love your new electric vehicle.

Sharing sustainable energy ideas through the exhibition will hopefully inspire others to use more sustainable energy options, which are needed more than ever. Celebrating those who use sustainable energy will encourage them to keep using it and to do more. The exhibition debuts with an opening reception at the KAG on January 14, and is open to all those who make a submission, along with their friends and family.

Submission criteria can be found online here and questions about the exhibition can be directed to: James Gordon at jamesgordon008@gmail.com; Marcia Dick Marcia.a.dick@gmail.com; or Daniela Ginta Daniela.ginta@gmail.com.
