The Squamish Environment Society is excited to announce Birds & Words, a fundraising Art exhibition and online raffle.
Your participation helps protect wild birds through support for the ongoing SES Bird monitoring programs.
Birds & Words is a collaborative art exhibit showcasing Sea-to-Sky visual artists and poets, inspired by species listed in SES Monthly Estuary Bird Count. This impactful art installation brings together 20 bird paintings and 6 poems in a cohesive mosaic, demonstrating how words and visual art can complement one another and convey an important environmental message. Buy your tickets now for a chance to win one of the 20 original bird paintings created specifically for the 2024 Birds & Words Project. Draw date is Feb 14, 2025.
The Birds ‘n Words team (Toby Jaxon, Tatiana Lee and Zoë Evamy) is grateful for support from the Squamish Arts 2024 Arts & Culture Grant. Together they work to provide opportunities for creative expression and dialogue, in support of local conservation initiatives.
Earlier the installation was on display at the Foyer Gallery in the Squamish Public Library and has ‘flown’ over to the Squamish Valley Clubhouse.
