Art that Matters to the Planet: Wild America – Artist Call Deadline

January 10, 2025 @ 5:00 pm - 8:00 pm

The Roger Tory Peterson Institute in Jamestown, NY, invites artists to submit work for our fourth annual juried exhibition of Art that Matters to the Planet: Wild America.

Art that Matters to the Planet explores the ways in which art and artists can help to shape a more sustainable future. Art that Matters to the Planet: Wild America will coincide with the 70th anniversary of the publication of Wild America: The Record of a 30,000 Mile Journey Around the Continent by a Distinguished Naturalist and His British Colleague, by Roger Tory Peterson and James Fisher.

We are pleased to announce that Kenn Kaufman will be serving as the juror for 2025. Kaufman is an American author, artist, naturalist, and conservationist who was strongly influenced by the artwork and writing of Roger Tory Peterson. In particular, Wild America inspired Kenn to pursue birds all over North America while he was still a teenager.
