Taxidermy and Drawing with NYC Plover Project

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! 

RSVP and ticket info here - https://luma.com/j7gfj67u

​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

Taxidermy specimens are legally and sustainably sourced. The bird you’ll see at this event is being preserved for an educational display. A sourcing statement can be seen at gothamtaxidermy.com/about. All study skins/drawing specimens are sustainably sourced and provided by Local Nature Lab. No animals are harmed for the sake of art.
