October 2013: AFC Festival Highlights - "Quick Sketch" and Youth Programs
During the opening festivities, David and a few fellow artists participated in a "Raptor Quick Sketch," where they had only one hour to complete a drawing or painting of one of three living wildlife ambassadors. The artwork created in front of the audience was later included in a live auction, with funds going to support AFC programs.
The program featured several fun and creative activities (indoors and outdoors) exploring nature and species conservation, with a special focus on the importance of being an environmental guardian and how we can minimize our impact. Activities included an interpretive eco-walk, a gallery tour, a documentary film, First Nations cultural presentation, and a special hands-on workshop, where David was able to share his artistic talent along with his understanding and passion for wildlife and habitat conservation. Students left an Environmental Guardian certificate, and finished artwork.
