Join us for an up-close photography experience at AWARE! 

Students will get the opportunity to photograph AWARE Ambassador animals, both in their enclosures and closeup with a handler. The exact species available for photography will be determined on the day of the workshop, but are likely to include owls (barn, barred, great horned, and screech), hawks (red-tailed and broad-winged), crows, possums, skunks, flying squirrels, turtles, and snakes.

AWARE Wildlife Center rehabilitates almost 2,000 injured and orphaned native Georgia animals each year for release back into the wild. It also delivers educational programs to the public about wildlife, habitat preservation, and peaceful coexistence.

Half of registration will be donated to AWARE. 

Limited space is available, so sign up now!
