Talk: Wonderful World : Travels with a Wildlife Artist
Venue: Strutts Centre Derby Road Belper DE56 1UU
Details : From being presented with an orphaned bear cub as a gift on her 21st birthday to being charged by a komodo dragon, for Anna-Louise life working alongside Pollyanna was never dull.
In this light hearted talk she tells new stories of life and work alongside Pollyanna from her perspective. Not many careers involve requests to organise expeditions to Ethiopia to search for the world’s rarest wolf, or to take a bucket of live toads to a TV studio.
But equally few provide the opportunities to bottle feed an orphaned six month old baby panda bear or to photograph wild jaguars from a boat in the wilds of Brazil. Find out why Anna-Louise says being the assistant to a wildlife artist is the best job in the world…
The lavishly illustrated talk will be hosted by Belper and District U3A as one of their Open Meetings which guests and prospective members are welcome to attend.
