via UIC Summer Institute on Sustainability and Energy:
UIC Summer Institute on Sustainability and Energy has partnered with The EcoVoice Project to present the EcoVoice Festival — three days of performances and activities that build awareness, educate, and call others to action on climate change. The 2022 inaugural festival will take place July 8-10 and be hosted in part at the University of Illinois Chicago (as well as Loyola University). The festival will feature the premiere live performance of the New Earth Ensemble, and two new song cycles, as well as educational panels and sessions. All events will be open to the general public. Thanks to the sponsorship of UIC SISE all activities are free to UIC students (with RSVP, student ID at door) — including the Friday and Saturday evening concerts.
