Featuring a Nature Photography Exhibit by Kathryn Cubert and Presentation “Into the Rainforest” by Katie Weddle, Wildlife Educator

Doors open at 7:00pm for you to endulge in holiday treats as you enjoy the nature photography exhibit by Kathryn Cubert, nature photographer and conservationist. Kathryn loves the outdoors and treasures the number of parks, bogs, wetlands, lakes and shores we have in Ohio. “It’s humbling to think about really, in terms of the possibilities for exploration. That being said, as time goes on I’ve felt an inexplicable sense of urgency in accomplishing my goals with my art. Some call it a passion. Others call it craziness. Whatever naming convention you choose to use, the time I spend on my photography is what brings a sense of purpose to my life.”

At 7:15pm, we’ll settle into our seats for a presentation by BNC Wildlife Educator, Katie Weddle. Katie will share with us the incredible opportunity she had over this past summer to travel to Ecuador. About 6% of all plant and wildlife species are found in Ecuador giving it the title of one of the most biodiverse hotspots in the world. From the breath-taking Andes mountains to the serene cloud forests to the deep Amazon Rainforest, magnificent flora and fauna were seen at every turn. Throughout the evening, she will show photos of the amazing wildlife and the beautiful landscape as well as tell stories of the interesting experiences encountered while there!
