Attend the free opening night reception celebrating the February Wirtz Gallery exhibit titled “Preserving the Past, Protecting the Future” — an intimate look at Tropical Audubon Society's 75-year trajectory, our deep local roots and crucial conservation mission. This colorful and captivating illustrated history will be brought to life via vintage and contemporary images, iconic "Double Elephant" Folio John James Audubon prints, canvases by South Florida wildlife painter Patricia Cummins and bird photographs by visual storyteller Federico Acevedo. The month-long exhibit will also illuminate our society's benefactor, South Miami-area pioneer Arden Hayes "Doc" Thomas, the gift of his now-historic 1932 cottage to our organization, and our commitment to protecting South Florida wildlife and preserving our region's diverse habitats and natural resources. (The opening night reception is subject to postponement or cancellation pending February pandemic status/protocols.)

“Preserving the Past, Protecting the Future” will hang in The Wirtz Gallery from February 1-28; Gallery hours: Monday-Thursday, 9-4, Friday 9-5.
