Canadian artist Benjamin Van Wong will conduct ‘Igniting Conservation Through Art’ – a Wildlife and Nature Protection Society Youth Wing Skills Workshop via Zoom and FB Live on World Wildlife Day-Wednesday, March 3 at 7.30 p.m.
A world-renowned artist and activist Benjamin will focus on the intersection between art and environmental activism.
Benjamin’s work lies at the intersection of fantasy and photography and combines everyday objects with shocking statistics. It has attracted the attention of corporate giants like Starbucks, Dell, and Nike and has generated over 100 million views for causes like ocean plastics, electronic waste, and fashion pollution.
Most recently, he was named one of Adweek’s 11 content branded masterminds. He is also the host of the Impact Everywhere Podcast.
He will be talking about the power of art and storytelling to ignite conversation, the elements that make something spread on the internet, and what it takes to bring large-scale collaborations together!
The workshop is presented by WNPS and the High Commission of Canada.
