The Overwintering Project is an environmental art project inviting artists from Australia and New Zealand to visit, research, and respond to the unique nature of their local migratory shorebird habitat. Australia and New Zealand have over 100 internationally important shorebird overwintering sites. These sites are not interchangeable: each possesses a unique combination of physical and biological features that makes it the perfect sanctuary for migratory shorebirds to return to year after year.
Printmakers are invited to submit a print to the Overwintering Print Portfolio. Galleries, artists, print workshops and groups, councils, schools, BirdLife groups, NPWS services or any other group with an interest in raising awareness of their local shorebirds and shorebird habitat are invited to participate in the Overwintering Project by organising an Independent Overwintering Project Exhibition or Event.
If you would like to plan an Overwintering Project exhibition or event, please first contact the Project Co-ordinator Kate Gorringe-Smith (overwinteringproject@gmail.com).
