Postcards from the Arctic

Donación protegida
POSTCARDS FROM THE ARCTIC  is  a fundraiser to support Michelle Dussault  and her protagonist IOWA STARR.

In September 2019 they will be traveling to the High Arctic, aboard a tall ship on a mission to retrieve the last Gogo drift seed from the Svalbard Seed Vault. If all goes well (does it ever?) they will save the planet from ocean acidification. If not they will have a good time trying!

Iowa & Michelle need to raise $5000 dollars for their Arctic Circle residency. They will explore the Svalbard Archipelago and Arctic Ocean aboard a research vessel, with international artists and scientists.

You are invited to follow along on their Arctic adventure.

In gratitude all donors will receive polar-factoids and related audio-visual content from Iowa and Michelle during their High Arctic adventure.
