Reimagining Stewardship as a Living Culture, 26 Nov 19.00 GMT
A participatory online gathering by Harmonia & Eternal Forest
📅 26 November, 19:00 WET / Portugal time
💻 Online
This gathering is for people already stewarding, or preparing to steward, land, forests, farms, restoration projects, cultural and learning spaces, communities and other regenerative initiatives.
Together we will explore a question that sits beneath many of these projects: how do we create the human conditions for strewardship?
Through a shared inquiry we will work with themes of belonging, reciprocity, governance, participation, power and care, bringing real questions from our own projects into the room.
The gathering is also a first step towards a future 6-month Stewardship Cohort being developed by Harmonia & Eternal Forest.

Hands-On! From Land Art to Land Care

Can Art Enact Real Ecological Change? Can an artistic action interrupt destruction, protect a place, restore relationships, or help a landscape come back to life?
In the past seven decades, we’ve seen art shift from telling stories about Earth to actively caring for her. From artist-run community gardens and regenerative projects to performances that halt mining machinery, clown shows that help stop forest cutting, and land projects that resist highway construction.
Hands-On! explores art that goes beyond raising awareness to bring real, felt change to communities and landscapes.
Through stories and artworks, we’ll discover artistic actions of land care from the past seven decades, exploring the strategies behind them and the changes they set in motion.
We’ll then work in pairs to imagine our own artistic actions in response to ecological threats or as a continuous practice of care. Together, we’ll share ideas, discover unexpected possibilities and explore how art can transform our relationships with the land.
Who is this for?
Artists, creatives, ecologists, land stewards, community organisers and anyone interested in the power of art to create tangible ecological change.
Bring your curiosity and willingness to imagine art beyond its familiar boundaries. Leave with inspiring examples, practical approaches and new possibilities for acting through art in the places and communities you care about.
