About Compassion Arts Festival

Dawn Casteel Lorick: Geese

Compassion Arts Festival is an annual virtual creative arts program from the all-volunteer collective project Compassion Arts, for inspiring compassion for animals and the Earth, raising awareness, and celebrating the life we share the planet with.

The festival is free and does not accept donations or funding. Its programs are made possible by the all-volunteer presenters and collaborators who share their work and artistry in advocacy for animals, to create the programs that are offered each year.

Compassion Arts Festival is paused this year while its parent project Compassion Arts is in transition. The festival will return in the future in a new virtual format. You can learn more in the video below. For a list of past presenters see our ARCHIVES page.
