Well, ArtPrize has come and gone, but this site, and the message behind it are here to stay! We think the topic of wind energy is vital to today’s conversation about climate change, jobs, and creating the clean energy future of tomorrow.
Stay tuned while Win, Win Wind! becomes a great resource for windpower news, information and conversation!
Well, ArtPrize is still ongoing, and we wanted to make sure you got a good look of how our entry came about. Lots of planning, lots of contribution, lots of fun!
Here is an essay by Rich VanderVeen, talking about his ArtPrize entry, and the meaning behind it. Lots of information on the installation of Win, Win Wind! background info on wind energy, and the need to embrace our natural resources!
With young folks in mind, Susan VanderVeen wrote a story that brings wind power into an every-day child’s life. Illustrated by Betsy VanderVeen Rutz, Farming the Wind (© 2009 Susan P. VanderVeen) explores wind power from a child’s perspective. After the typical long search for a publisher, the author-illustrator team is very happy to have landed a contract with Raven Productions in Ely, Minnesota. Raven does a wonderful job of teaching young people how to enjoy and protect the natural world. http://www.ravenwords.com/
