A group of sixteen people gathers around a large table displaying colorful graphic posters in an art studio. The posters, printed in bright pink, green, and blue, address environmental issues, climate change, and social justice, with messages including “Seaweed,” “Noticing Every Little Discard,” and “Sustainable Life Begins with the Death of Capitalism.” Additional posters hang on the walls, and printing equipment is visible nearby.
