Join area writer, birder, and conservation advocate Kelly Ball to craft a life-sized bird sculpture from upcycled cloth and become part of a crowdsourced art project. Each handcrafted bird commemorates a real bird that lost its life after hitting glass. Your bird will become part of a 300-ft art project that will travel the U.S. to educate the public about bird-window collisions and you'll be part of the searchable database of people that contributed. We'll also learn how to prevent bird-window collisions - especially important during spring migration! Note: This is a family-friendly program. Adults must accompany children. Participation is limited. Pre-registration is required. WHERE: Nature Center of Cape May, 1600 Delaware Avenue, Cape May, NJ. WHEN: Saturday, April 4th, 1pm-3pm COST: This is a FREE workshop, but we highly encourage a $5 donation to support the amazing work of the Nature Center of Cape May. Interested in becoming a member?
