About

Sustainable art…come and see how well sustainability and creativity can be combined. The ultimate purpose of this art exhibition is to raise awareness for the sustainable development goals brought up by the United Nations. The Sustainable Development Goals were implemented by all members of the United Nations, as a widespread plea to action to end poverty, protect our vulnerable planet, and to ensure that all people enjoy peace and prosperity by 2030.

During this art exhibition various artists, and students, from and around Leeuwarden will display various types of art, all relatable to the Sustainable Development Goals. The ultimate goal of this exhibition is to sell the art, and to raise money for charity that supports achieving the seventeen goals by 2030.
