We hope you can stop out and see our Spring Art Exhibit featuring the works of Faith Ritchie. Faith is an artist, nature photographer, and mushroom enthusiast based out of Dayton, Ohio. She takes a subtle approach to her subject matter, creating simple but magical scenes with her use of perspective and natural lighting. Faith also playfully creates self-portrait photo collages and short videos showcasing the beauty of Ohio nature, especially mushrooms! Faith’s art will be on sale in the Heidelberg Auditorium through June 16.
Thanks to the generosity of our artists, 25% of each sale is donated to support BNC’s mission of wildlife conservation!

PEEP - Winter Session 2
Imagine a world where all children play, learn and grow with nature in their everyday lives. Let them spend their days outside using their imagination. Let them be free to slither through the grass like a snake or silently fly like an owl hunting for a mouse, Give the child in your life the gift to play, learn and grow with nature in their everyday life!
Charley Harper Exhibit
We invite you to come out and see the iconic art of Charley Harper! He had a unique view of wildlife and wild places, not through realistic paintings, but by means of stylized drawings and paintings that capture the essence of his subjects using the fewest elements – minimal realism. He liked to joke that he doesn’t count the feathers of the birds he paints, just the wings. His different perspective on the world always includes a little humor and mystery and aims to help us want to preserve the natural treasures that remain.

Nest Boxes & Note Cards by Steve & Marian Moeckel
Steve & Marian Moeckel are retired educators who enjoy sharing their lifelong love of nature with others.
Using plans and information provided by the Cornell University Laboratory of Ornithology, Steve works with his hands to create suitable nest boxes and feeders to help people support and enjoy birds in their backyards. Watching a bird deliver a meal of insects gleaned from plants growing in the backyard to nestlings in a nest box in the yard is affirming, entertaining, relaxing, and rewarding (to everyone but the insects).
Marian creates hand-painted and photo note cards to celebrate the beauty of plants and animals and to promote the lost art of letter writing.
