Fantastic Planet Festival: The Third Annual Public Arts Festival @ ODU

October 13, 2023 - October 15, 2023 Sponsors

Join us this fall for the Third Annual Public Arts Festival at ODU, featuring works from the thought-provoking Fantastic Planet series by internationally-renowned Australian artist Amanda Parer.

Over three nights, the campus will be transformed by the presence of otherworldly figures, inviting us to reflect on our relationship with the natural world and our responsibility to preserve it for future generations. Inspired by the film of the same name, this playful and immersive series of artworks carries an underlying message of stewardship, environmentalism, and our role on this fantastic planet.

Fantastic Planet is generously sponsored by Old Dominion University, the ODU Educational Foundation and the Brock Foundation, presenting artworks by Amanda Parer.
