Nancy Pochis Bank Art Studio’s second Cool Globe, is currently on display in Vancouver, at Science World outside TELUS World of Science. This globe was originally created for Southwest Airlines about the importance of giving employees the time and incentive to volunteer. The exhibit showcases multiple giant globes depicting hopeful solutions to climate change. Our globe has been on tour for the last couple years between San Francisco, San Diego, Los Angeles, and Houston. If you are in Vancouver in the next few months, stop by Science World and see the exhibit!

Chicago Public Artwork Goes International

In the summer of 2007, “Cool Globes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet” was launched in Chicago. Nancy Pochis Bank was among an international group of artists selected by the jury to design and create a globe to be displayed in the lakefront exhibit.

Since the start of the "Cool Globes" project, Nancy has created four 5’ globes that have been exhibited across the United States and internationally.

“Cool Globes: Hot Ideas for a Cooler Planet” is a non-profit organization established to raise awareness of climate change and inspire individuals and community leaders to embrace solutions. The public art exhibit features larger-than-life globes, each designed to depict a solution to global warming.
