LOCATION:Turchin Center for the Visual Arts Mayer Gallery\, 423 West King 
 Street\, Boone\, NC 28608
DESCRIPTION:Community Contours in the Southern Appalachian Mountains: Jill
  Pelto is presented in partnership with the Pathways to Resilience QEP\, 
 a 5-year (2024-2029) climate literacy initiative at Appalachian State Uni
 versity. This important university-wide initiative encourages students’ c
 limate literacy and climate response-ability—the capacity to participate 
 in positive climate action in our professions and our communities\, from 
 local to global. Pelto's watercolor series encapsulates species resilienc
 e amidst changing habitats across the Southern Appalachian Mountains.\n\n
 Pelto describes how\, "my experience as an artist and climate scientist s
 hapes my paintings\, which incorporate environmental narratives and scien
 ce data. To start untangling the complexities of local and global trends\
 , I visualize connections between environmental change and human action. 
 Through color\, pattern\, and perspective\, I hope to provide unexpected 
 opportunities for people to personally engage science through observation
 \, reflection\, and dialogue." Community Contours in the Southern Appalac
 hian Mountains: Jill Pelto is on display in Mayer Gallery\, and is access
 ible to the public during regular hours of operation. Admission is free.\
