Dear Artists, Sponsors, Patrons and Students,
Creating for Conservation is about the art of saving wildlife and in turn the art of empowering people. I can truly say, with an authentic voice and an ethical heart, this diverse art exhibition really IS about supporting the wonders and ripple effect of conservation education on individuals and communities, their livelihoods and ultimately the protection of the wildlife they live with. I am excited to be sharing this with you!
We look forward to your involvement. Making a true difference is what changes lives. Thank you for your consideration.

What it’s all about…
Your involvement is vital. Together we will be supporting the first-ever International Conservation Exchange linking Conservation Corps students from Pulteney Grammar School with Chipembele Conservation Club students from Zambia. In 2013 Conservation Corps students from Pulteney Grammar School will be travelling; self-funded, to Zambia. In 2014 Chipembele Zambian students will be visiting us in Adelaide. A true international conservation education exchange. Funds raised from the exhibition will help bring the Zambian students to Adelaide. Anna Tolan, the Founder and CEO of Chipembele Wildlife Education Trust, will be joining us to open the exhibition.

"This truly is an exciting, innovative and lasting programme for the future of Australian and Zambian young people, their environments and designed to assist lifelong involvement in the stewardship of Earth."
Where and why?
This year, for the first time, Creating for Conservation Exhibition will be at Pulteney Grammar School. Following three wonderful exhibitions in the Adelaide Hills, we are now moving to South Terrace on the fringe of the city of Adelaide. Our move is made to both grow and expand conservation links with Pulteney Grammar School and to extend our patronage. This new and central location offers not only a larger exhibition space, but will raise the profile and exposure of the Pulteney Grammar Conservation Corps, Chipembele Conservation Education Programmes and the wondrous artworks donated and exhibited.
We do hope you will join with us!
