The (wildflower) show must go on! The ANGAIR Wildflower & Art Weekend has unfortunately been cancelled for the second year in a row due to the pandemic, however the digital show will ensure no-one is denied a glimpse of the natural delights of the Surf Coast. The ANGAIR Nature Show website features a raft of new material and can be enjoyed from 9 September at: www.angairnatureshow.org.au
The popular online walks segment will feature the recently opened Yan Wirring Mirr walk on the Anglesea Heath. The ANGAIR Nature Show themes include:
New items include a gallery of nature photographs from local photographers, including members of the newly-formed Anglesea Snappers, who had planned to exhibit in the physical show. There are also six new jigsaws featuring local scenes, bugs and beasties, which have been added to last year's four jigsaws.
WONDER Discover, explore and wonder at the amazing fauna and flora found in the Anglesea/Aireys region.
With a large and diverse range of content embedded online across different themes, there is something on the website to suit most interests and ages. Viewers are encouraged to go back again and again to explore the various items and look for what’s new. This includes an exhibition in which local school students present creative works aimed at persuading people to protect the Surf Coast’s endangered and vulnerable plant and animal species.
