Abstract

This book examines art, design, craft, and education in the North, Arctic, and near-Arctic regions. The chapters illuminate how contemporary art in
these areas promotes and critiques sustainability through education, community engagement, and locally rooted artistic practices. Each chapter offers
unique approaches to addressing urgent social, cultural, and environmental issues affecting Arctic regions, with art serving both as a pedagogical tool
and a form of activism. The contributions to this eleventh Relate North book showcase the richness and expansion of new genre Arctic art education.

The book will interest a wide audience, including cultural animators, sociologists, artists, designers, crafters, educators, and practice-based researchers.
Additionally, it will be relevant to undergraduate and postgraduate students in art, design, and education, as well as to museums, cultural institutions,
scholars, and policymakers focused on contemporary art, craft, design, and education.
