An Educational Art Project concerning the Proposed Dam in the upper Carmel Valley area known as Cachagua.
The organizers of this project do not belong to any one political group. We are local artists concerned with the destructive damage a dam would cause. Many of us photograph or paint the landscape environment and are concerned with protecting and preserving the exceptional beauty of our Monterey Peninsula, our Native American cultural heritage sites, the lives of children and families threatened by dangerous circumstances, and of our planet's health and it's ability to sustain life
SUMMARY
We have invited 50 photographers to visually respond to the proposed destruction of environment, community, and cultural loss that would be caused by a new dam. The Project "Visual Voices: Threat of a Dam" includes this web site, a traveling portfolio as part of an educational community campaign, a video, a children's art exhibit, a portable painted mural, performance art and a large exhibition of photographs seeking healing solutions rather than destructive ones.
