Community Arts Project
Connecting people to nature is at the heart of the Art of Saving Species gallery. Creativity has the power to connect people to the natural world around them in a powerful and tangible way, forging an affinity for the species and spaces near them that are under threat. Back from the Brink, through its community arts events, gave the means for local people to reconnect, and transform their understanding and love of nature near them.
The culmination of our work with
communities who are saving wildlife across England
We had planned to take our tour of community arts round the country, but a lot has had to change this year. See where we went with our art events and click on the map to see how communities responded to our conservation projects.
