The Wild Bunch are experts in their field, having recently taken part in an exhibition at Dudley Art Gallery with the Wildlife Art Society International, undertaking a sketching and photographing trip to Cannock Chase to watch fallow deer.
The Rainforest Foundation UK aims to support the indigenous peoples and traditional populations who live in the world’s rainforests, helping them to protect their environment and increase their influence over the use of the land.
The exhibition takes place at Dunchurch Village Hall, Rugby Road Sports Ground, on Saturday, November 5, from 10am to 5pm and Sunday, November 6, from 10am to 4pm.
