Wild Postcard Gallery Kenya

 

Where Did All the Animals Go? project launched Kenya Outreach Programme with Born Free Kenya in October 2020 to showcase drawings by Kenyan's of their beautiful country's rich wildlife heritage.

Jane was thrilled to receive the first drawings for the Kenya Gallery from Losioki Somoire of African Conservation Centre - US who sent artworks by children from the Amboseli Ecosystem. WDATAG? project was used as part of the children's awareness follow-activities through the African Conservation Centre Conservation Education Outreach programme. These exquisite and iconic drawings depict the treasured wildlife of Amboseli National Park.

For further details about Wild Postcard Gallery and how to submit your drawing please visit the main gallery here. Jane would like to extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who has contributed to Wild Postcard Gallery Kenya.
