On the Edge: Species at Risk exhibition

Coming to Lion Gate Lodge in Autumn 2023, On the Edge will highlight Australian flora, fauna and habitats that are threatened by climate change, development, introduced species and other environmental issues. The exhibition will showcase a diversity of endangered and vulnerable Australian species and ecological communities. The artwork includes a wide variety of mediums such as painting, drawing, printmaking, photography, ceramics, wood, and textiles. Each artwork will be accompanied by an artist's statement outlining the threat the species or environment is facing.

All purchases support your Botanic Gardens.
