These are some of the things we are preparing for the event:
- LIVE mural painting
- Scribing – illustration of conference talks
- How to sketch a vulture session
- Vulture Photography exhibit and contest
- Poetry session
- Music and dance session
- Silent auction of vulture art, books and photos for conservation action fundraising
- Artist booths
