National Sculpture Society thanks Craig Piper, Wildlife Conservation Society Director of City Zoos; Michelle Beach, Manager of Education at the Central Park Zoo, and the entire WCS staff for providing a venue for these talented sculptors to demonstrate another way to appreciate and support wildlife conservation: through artistic expression. Thanks also goes to The Compleat Sculptor for generously donating the clay.
