2025-26 Climate Stories Showcase

April 17, 2026

Solarium, Plemmons Student Union

> Showcase Participation Form

Dear Faculty Colleagues, 

We’re trying out new approaches for the showcase as resources like exhibition space evolve. This year the showcase will be a pop up festival-style tabling event taking place in the evening in mid-April. Students will stand with their projects and get to talk with audience members about their work. The event will also include 1-2 acts of climate stories performances. 

Each participating class will have a table on which to share the strongest climate stories projects from that class. We’ll provide display resources like tabletop easels, standing easels, and book stands; you’ll select which works to display and coordinate with your students to set up (festive decorations encouraged!) and staff your table. 

We’re excited to host the showcase in the student union’s Solarium as it provides plenty of space and a stage where we can feature performances of climate stories in the form of short plays, songs, and readings of poems and narratives. 

Let us know that you want your class(es) to participate by filling out this Showcase Participation Form. The form will be open throughout this semester and into early Spring semester, so feel free to fill it out once you have a handle on your Spring courses and planning. Note that student work from Fall 2025 semester classes is welcome too.

We will provide more details as they develop!
