Wildlife needs
our help meeting
the challenges of stresses on the
environment more than ever before. Every
day we treat birds who are struggling
to overcome injuries from fishing
lines and hooks, oil and other
pollutants like plastics, starvation,
and new diseases. You can
help us help them by donating your
art and photographs to IBRRC for
our upcoming
Art Auction.
Last
year’s event was
covered by the local press and
attended by hundreds of bird lovers
who bid on 50 pieces of original
art and photographs, raising almost
$5,000. This money goes directly
to help birds in need. 365
days a year, our professionally
trained wildlife rehabilitation
staff provides the best achievable
care at our state-of the art facility
in San Pedro. IBRRC’s
philosophy is that every life is
important, and especially so for
the many threatened and endangered
species we successfully rehabilitate
and return to the wild. See
story about Slash.
Help us give birds
in need a second chance at life
by donating your artwork to our
Auction. IBRRC is a 501 c3 non
profit organization and your donation
is tax deductible. We are looking
for wildlife or nature paintings,
photos, carvings, sculpture, collectables
and sculptures for the silent auction.
This year we will also be raising
money through the sale of t-shirts,
hats, framed photographs from our
archives and donated items like
calendars, cards, jewelry – anything
with a wildlife theme and especially
water birds.

Help us make this year’s
Silent Art Auction and benefit
even bigger and better. Once
again, we will have live music

and behind the scenes tours of
the center. Please feel free

other artists.
Thank you for considering IBRRC
and our special friends, California’s
wild birds, as recipients of your art,
a special refection of your love
of wildlife.
