Join us on Sunday, June 14th at 10:00 AM for a collaborative Taxidermy Demonstration & Drawing workshop led Gotham Taxidermy, in partnership with NYC Plover Project, at the Arverne East Nature Preserve's Coastal Conservation Center!

Watch and learn about the intricate process of preserving animals, a combination of art and science. After a demonstration of this practice, attendees will then work with taxidermy and study skins as inspiration to create unique drawings.
This will help us see birds with deeper appreciation and reverence for their artistry and anatomy. No previous birding or artistic experience is required-all are welcome! Light refreshments will be available.
All are welcome, no experience necessary.
Space is limited. RSVP and ticket info here - https://luma.com/j7gfj67u
