City of Napa Announces Opening of 2024-2026 “Climate Action and Sustainability” Exhibit

The City of Napa is pleased to announce the opening of the 2024-2026 Napa Art Walk "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.

The City of Napa invites members of the public to enjoy the latest Napa Art Walk by visiting the various installation sites. A map of the locations can be found on our website.

The City of Napa has partnered again with Otocast Audio for a guided tour which includes interviews with each artist. This smartphone app is available free on the Apple store and Google Play. For more information about the program and past exhibits, please visit www.NapaArtWalk.org.
