ARTISTS SUPPORT DEVIL ARK

Sydney–based Rachel Carroll, Samantha Glasheen and Kelly Stewart will launch an exhibition of their works on Friday, 30 July at the Marianne Newman Gallery, Crows Nest. On opening night they will also launch a Silent Auction which will raise funds for FAME (Foundation for Australia's Most Endangered Species) and their quest to save Tasmanian Devil from extinction.

The exhibition will be opened by Professor Rick Shine, Professor in Evolutionary Biology, University of Sydney.

FAME Executive Director, Cheryl Hill, will talk about the recently announced Devil Ark captive breeding project planned for the Hunter Valley, where an insurance population of Tasmanian Devils will be established against the increasing likelihood of the disappearance of the Devil from Tasmania.
