Audubon Wildlife Art & Craft Festival bringing wildlife to life

Take a step indoors and explore just how cool nature is with the 29th Audubon Wildlife Art & Craft Festival set for July 19 and 20 at Wallenpaupack Area High School in Hawley. Festival Director Dave Fooks describes the experience geared toward cultivating the senses as guests absorb the talents of over 80 exhibiters while they interact with the sights and sounds of various live animal species. What’s the inspiration behind AWACF? Fooks tells, “The festival exists to help educate the public about the environment, as well as, the wildlife in our area.� He reports funds raised maintain two area wetlands and provide scholarships along with educational materials for local students and schools. Why celebrate the intertwining of art and wildlife? Considered the “jewel of the event� live animal presentations from top wildlife experts in the Northeast including Pocono Wildlife Rehabilitation Center, Pocono Snake and Animal Farm plus Rizzo’s Reptile Discovery enhance the atmosphere as “wildlife has been the subject of artforms since prehistoric man.� He notes Sculpted Ice Works of the Pocono Mountains returns displaying their carving skills; joined by a collection of the Northeast’s finest nature artists and craftsmen displaying photography, leatherwork, various mediums of paint and more! Sponsored by the Northeast Pennsylvania Audubon Society this event runs from 10:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. each day. Admission is $5 with kids under 12 enjoying for free.
