NATURE Lab (short for North Troy Art, Technology and Urban Research in Ecology) is a volunteer-led initiative integrating art, science, and technology in regular community workshops, public art installations, and ongoing research and collection activities in our surrounding ecosystem. Artist/scientist teams will work with the community around issues of “curing” our local ecologies, environmental health, public health and sustainability.

NATURE Lab workshops educate community members on the environmental trials we face in our shared urban habitat, and open up a dialogue about how we, together, can work towards environmental remediation.

We are committed to lowering the barriers to access for events at The Sanctuary for Independent Media. For people who are hard of hearing or deaf, blind or low-vision, or whose physical limitations can interfere with a satisfying experience, let us know two weeks in advance so we can make appropriate arrangements.
