April is Earth Month and Arcadia Earth’s “Our Planet Challenge” offers some interesting and accessible options to make a positive difference and to celebrate planet Earth.
Arcadia Earth, Toronto’s one-of-a-kind immersive journey through planet Earth, presents environmental issues in an inspiring way to activate positive change that benefits the planet. The exhibit is located at The Well, a new entertainment hub in Toronto.
Founded by experiential designer Valentino Vettori, Arcadia Earth emerged from a desire for change and an unwavering commitment to a sustainable future. Guided by a vision to inspire and empower individuals, the Arcadia Earth team embarked on a transformative journey over four years ago, merging art, technology, and environmental consciousness. Fueled by the belief that our collective actions shape a brighter tomorrow, Arcadia Earth strives to ignite a global movement, fostering harmony between humanity and our precious planet.
Following successful runs in New York, Las Vegas, and Saudi Arabia, this renowned multi-room immersive experience will make Toronto its first permanent home.
