Climate Action and Sustainability

The theme for the 8th Napa ArtWalk is Climate Action and Sustainability.  This exhibition series includes nine sculptures by artists from across North America that embody concepts related to this theme.

Climate action and sustainability have been priorities for the City of Napa since the passage of the ‘Climate Emergency Resolution’ in 2022. The aim of this installation series is to prompt the public to think about and connect with the issue of climate change in new ways, while also showcasing hopeful and innovative artistic responses. The Napa Valley has a unique and dynamic ecology, and this public art presentation aims to inspire a sense of individual and collective stewardship of this place we call home.

It is important for public artwork in Napa’s urban center to offer a source of inspiration and pride for tourists and the community alike, as the valley navigates consistent growth and revitalization.  It is important that we inspire, invigorate, and encourage new ideas that serve as a catalyst for creativity.
