Message from Jeff Whiting, AFC Festival Executive Director
What an extraordinary year 2011 has turned out to be for Artists for Conservation.

In this 4th year of AFC's annual juried exhibit, we are taking major steps forward, with a new spectacular venue, a new environmental education program, our first film and a more ambitious event than ever.

In 2011, AFC is proud to welcome visitors to its first annual Artists For Conservation Festival in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada. Since 2007, Vancouver has topped the list of the world's most livable cities, according to an international survey conducted by the Economist Intelligence Unit - a result based on a combination of stability, health care, culture and environment, education, and infrastructure. Many will remember that last year, Vancouver was host to the 2010 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games, and proudly showcased the grand natural playground that envelopes the city. I can't imagine a backdrop more fitting for an inaugural festival focused on reconnecting people to the natural world through nature-inspired art and environmental education!


AFC Flag Expedition #11 - How an Artist Saved the Mountain Gorilla
Stephen C. Quinn, an award-winning artist and senior project manager at the American Museum of Natural History, will be embarking on a rare journey later this month to study the endangered mountain gorillas in Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo. The New Jersey native will retrace the footsteps of Carl Akeley’s famous expedition nearly a century ago, which ended in the heroic explorer’s death.


Jeffrey Whiting—Focus of Canadian Museum Exhibit
Jeffrey Whiting, founder and Director of the AFC, was honoured in a special exhibit at the Eastern Ontario Biodiversity Museum in Kemptville, Ontario, Canada. The exhibit focused on the paintings which went into Whiting's book "Owls of North America".

Jeff consults for local Arts Council Web site
A community arts and culture Web site benefitted from Jeff's expertise with a wealth of interactive features and tools. ISCAPE Internet Consulting (a firm in which Jeff is a partner) developed a customized Web-based content management tool, making it easier for employees and volunteers to manage vast amounts of Web site content and create instant directories and reports from multiple data sources online.
