First Friday at the Museum: California's Coastal Birds with Jacqueline Deely

Join the Santa Cruz Museum of Natural History for the opening reception of “California’s Coastal Birds,” a photography exhibit from Jacqueline Deely. Seeking to capture the beauty and essence of her subjects, Jacqueline spends hours in the field to bring their unique characteristics and story to the viewer. As a wildlife photographer and naturalist, conservation has a major influence both in her work and everyday life. “I am privileged to photograph the natural world, therefore it is my duty to protect it. I hope my images and the message they bring will inspire others to get involved.” Learn more about Jacqueline Deely at https://www.jacquelinedeely.com/.

This First Friday celebration is free to the public. Meet the artist while enjoying wine and snacks!

This exhibit is part of the Museum’s Summer Art Series, featuring three local photographers: Jacqueline Deely in June, Thomas Fallon Mackey in July, and Cody Mattson in August. Learn more at https://www.santacruzmuseum.org/exhibits/summer-art-series/
