Earth Day Network and more than 500 street artists planned and executed a worldwide protest – #EarthDay2020Halt. Beginning on Earth Day (April 22 at ) in New Zealand at 9 am NZT until 11:59 pm ET, breakout artists from every continent will showcase their projects, created in secret over the last sixth months in honor of Earth Day.
These urban artists range from established to emerging — graffiti writers, street artists, and muralists of all generations who will come together around climate change, the 50th anniversary of Earth Day, and other environmental issues. The art and location of each piece can be seen in an interactive map on https://www.earthday.org/earth-day-stealth-street-art/. The project was led and curated by LA-based street artist Meg Zany.
