Entry 67: Cool Globes in Little Rock: Art with a Purpose

While we were down by the river in Little Rock, we got to meander through the "Cool Globes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet" public art exhibition—an inspiring and visually stunning display of over 20 artist-designed globes. Each globe shared a unique, creative solution for tackling climate change, reminding us that we all play a role in shaping a more sustainable world.

Set against the backdrop of the Clinton Presidential Park lawn, the exhibition added an extra layer of beauty and purpose to an already scenic stroll. The diversity of styles and messages captured the urgency and hope that define today’s environmental movement. Whether it was energy conservation, urban gardening, clean water access, or youth education, each globe called us to action.

🌍 Art meets environmental action.
🎨 Creativity fuels the climate conversation.
💡 Solutions come alive through public art.

We left not only moved by the artwork but also reminded that through collective action, bold ideas, and a bit of creative spark, we hold the key to building a brighter, more resilient future.
