Read ecstatic reviews of the Ghosts of Gone Birds exhibition here, here and here.

Tonight (details here) there is some avian inspired poetry to go along with the art, which consists of contemporary portrayals of long extinct birds. The aim is to stop us from killing any more.

Oh, and it’s BYOB.

Birds are good.
