INDIANAPOLIS, IN – (Oct 8, 2018) The Indiana Wildlife Federation is pleased to announce that it has received a $1500 grant from the International Paper Company to aid in the printing and production of a 12-month calendar and notecards. These items will draw attention to threatened wildlife and habitats in Indiana using masterful watercolors donated from Indiana artist Brian Stovall.
Brian focused on species found in Indiana that have an ongoing conservation story, most species being threatened or endangered. The intention of the project was to engage new audiences through wildlife-themed artwork that highlights species of conservation need in the state.
“This project creatively brings together local art and wildlife education with great partners like International Paper,” said board president Stacy Cachules.
