🎧 We loved this episode of the Refolkus Podcast! 💚
At Ottawa Festivals, we’re always inspired to hear conversations that highlight the power of festivals to drive positive change—and this week’s episode of Refolkus, hosted by Rosalyn Dennett, is a powerful example.
In this episode, Rosalyn chats with Devin Latimer—an organic chemist, environmental communicator, and Artistic Director of Trout Forest Music Festival—about how festivals can be catalysts for climate action. From public engagement to practical sustainability strategies, this conversation dives into how our sector can respond meaningfully to the climate crisis.
It’s a hopeful and solutions-focused listen for anyone working in events, culture, or community building.
Let’s keep learning from each other as we build a more resilient and sustainable future for festivals, artists, and communities across Canada.
Catch the episode via Folk Canada and follow along for more climate and culture conversations.
