Kelly Clarkson Show

Kelly Clarkson: @kellyclarkson

 

Imagine a space where artists find inspiration, neighbors gather, and the land thrives—where art and ecology unite to uplift and sustain our communities.

 

Your contribution will help ArtsXchange transform its front yard into that place: a permaculture wonderland for the community to use and enjoy!

 

Please donate today. Grow with us.




 


Why This Project Matters

 

The landscapes we live in shape our daily lives. Yet, conventional landscapes—lawns, paved lots, and chemically-treated spaces—are failing us. They deplete our soils, waste water, and strip our communities of biodiversity. These problems aren't just aesthetic or environmental; they impact everyone—our food, our water, our health, and our future.

 

This project reimagines what a community greenspace can be:

• Designed for and by the community

• A thriving, biodiverse ecosystem that filters rainwater, nourishes pollinators, and grows organic food

• A gathering space for artists, educators, and activists

• A model for regenerative landscaping—one that restores the land

 

The Film

 

Led by Shades of Green Permaculture—with 16 years of experience in regenerative landscaping—and captured by award-winning filmmaker Jonathan Banks, this film documents The ArtsXchange and its transformation of an overlooked and underutilized greenspace into a thriving, resilient ecosystem. This isn’t just a story of a single garden—it’s a vision for the future of our shared landscapes.

 

Your Donation Directly Funds:

 

• A water system to capture and filter rainwater, protecting the land and the building foundation

• Native plants, edible gardens, and pollinator habitats for a resilient, multifunctional landscape

• Film production, editing, and distribution to spread this knowledge far and wide

 

Every dollar brings us closer to a future where landscapes heal communities, where artists are supported, and where community spaces flourish without barriers.
