An artist, a scientist, and a forester have been working together in Kilsture Forest, near Wigtown. What has this interdisciplinary relationship shown us, and can this uncover new ways of thinking about how we should respond to the climate and biodiversity crises?
Join artist Morag Paterson, scientist Dr Petra Guy, and forester Andy Macqueen for a lively, interdisciplinary discussion exploring the different ways they are responding to the climate and biodiversity crises in their work. With plenty of time for questions.
Online 7.30 pm - 9.00pm - February 3rd 2026.
The event is delivered online through the Streamyard platform, with lots of opportunity for the audience to put questions to the speakers. Streamyard requires nothing to be downloaded onto your computer, we will send a joining link out to signed up attendees in the day before the event.
