Hat Photo Festival

Roots and Resilience

“Roots and Resilience” is an outdoor photographic exhibition that considers human relationships to nature in urban settings. Possible considerations include how urban natural spaces affect mental wellness, or whether sustainability for our urban forests is even possible in Medicine Hat’s semi-arid climate. Tentative dates for this year's exhibition are September 15- October 13, 2024. **Applications are currently being reviewed, please stay tuned**
