Carol Bean discusses the intersection of art and environmental advocacy, highlighting the role of artists in land preservation.

In this episode of the Plein Air Easton Podcast , we're joined by Carol Bean of the Eastern Shore Land Conservancy for a conversation about land, legacy, and the power of creative expression. Carol shares how ESLC works to protect the Eastern Shore's farms, forests, and waterways—and why preserving these landscapes matters now more than ever. We also dig into the unique role artists can play in environmental advocacy, exploring how painting, storytelling, and visual documentation can inspire stewardship and spark meaningful conversations about conservation. It's a thoughtful look at how art doesn't just capture beauty—it can help protect it. https://www.eslc.org Follow Plein Air Easton: Official Site Facebook Instagram YouTube
