Rising Tide: The Crossroads Project is an acclaimed live performance that combines film, chamber music, and spoken word to motivate sustainable action in the face of climate change. The performance features physicist Rob Davies, the Fry Street Quartet with music anchored by a new work by composer Laura Kaminsky, as well as the images of painter Rebecca Allen and internationally acclaimed photographer Garth Lenz. Following the performance, a Q&A session will engage performers and IU experts to answer questions and address action steps for sustainability. This partnership is supported by the IU Cinema’s Creative Collaborations program. This program is sponsored by the IU Integrated Program in the Environment, Office of the Vice Provost for Research for Bloomington, Environmental Resilience Institute, Jacobs School of Music, Arts and Humanities Council, and IU Cinema.
