SUMMARY:Combining Art & Science to Save Species
DESCRIPTION:This event is posted on behalf of the Barrington Land Conservation Trust & Barrington Public Library. REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED. Please register here. \nWildlife populations are declining around the world because of human impacts\, and yet too few of us are part of the solution. In this presentation\, Dr. Lucy Spelman\, founder of the local organization Creature Conserve\, offers a behind-the-scenes look at how combining art and science can bring us together to save species. \nThe event will take place on Tuesday\, Oct. 20\, at 7 pm in the Salem Family Auditorium at the Barrington Public Library\, our partner in the Learning Series. \n“Dr. Lucy” believes that we need a more inviting and inclusive approach to wildlife conservation\, one that open to diverse perspectives from the arts\, humanities\, sciences\, traditional ecological knowledge and beyond. \nDrawing from her years as a zoo and wildlife veterinarian\, she describes some of her first experiences with art-sci collaboration. These stories are wild and wonderful\, from glue-on shoes for a rhino to parading for pandas. \nShe’ll introduce us to the work of Creature Conserve\, the non-profit she founded\, and her newest book\, Creature Needs\, which will be available for sale. You’ll see examples of art informed and inspired by science that call attention to the loss of biodiversity and what we can do about it.
