Wild Ways Conservation Art Project

The Wild Ways Conservation Art Project uses art as a vehicle to raise awareness about conservation issues, promoting positive action to encourage people to care for precious ecosystems in both Asia and Australia. With 2010 being the International Year of Biodiversity the Wild Ways project provides an excellent opportunity for cross curricula integration of conservation in your school and for your students to send a message to the community of the importance of biodiversity.

Western Australian schools are invited to submit a mixed-media banner to be exhibited at Perth Zoo and other locations. Please note:

• closing date for banner submissions is 5:00pm, Friday 17 September 2010. 
• due to space restrictions, we can only accept one submission per school. 
• the school and year level/s involved will be acknowledged in any display of the banners.

Please download the Wild Ways 2010 Teacher Info (pdf) to find out more about the Wild Ways project. Schools wishing to participate should complete the registration form and return it to Perth Zoo so that we can keep you up to date with the latest information.

Feeling creative? Join Perth Zoo and Access Asia and explore ways of using student art to communicate conservation and biodiversity issues.
