Kruckeberg Botanic Garden Foundation’s Annual Meeting Features Master Artist Tony Angell
Renowned sculptor, author, illustrator, and educator Tony Angell will give an illustrated talk on “Birds and Art in the Garden” and sign books at KBGF’s annual meeting: January 10th, 7pm at the Innis Arden Clubhouse.
Tony was a student of Dr. Art Kruckeberg’s (and a champion shot putter) at the University of Washington. For 30 years, Tony directed Environmental Education for the State of Washington.
The self-taught artist has achieved wide acclaim for his work, in multiple media, that celebrates nature. Graphically and verbally, his five books finely delineate sea birds and mammals; owls; and the family of crows, ravens, and jays.
His sculpture “Surf Birds” is installed at the front of KBG’s new Native Plant Demonstration Garden and will be on display through August 2014.
In his talk, Tony will address “Birds and Art in the Garden,” two of his favorite subjects. Tony Angell is a rock star crowd pleaser, regularly drawing overflow crowds and selling out books on hand. Please join us for a memorable evening.
