Stacey Sproule will introduce and present her 4-minute animation - SOJOURN - centered on Prince Edward County's South Shore. Learn more about Stacey, a multidisciplinary artist, here on the County Arts webpage.

A special guest presentation will follow on “Accelerating Conservation in Ontario: Exploring New Tools and Opportunities” by Luke Ridgway, Conservation Manager at The Ontario Conservation Accelerator.

Luke has professional experience in public, private, and non-profit sectors. With an educational background in GIS, remote sensing, and restoration ecology, Luke has held positions related to environmental regulation and policy, private consulting with indigenous communities, and most recently, served as NCC’s Large Landscape Program Coordinator before joining the OCA. He also served on the board of directors of the Wild Bird Trust of BC and owns a canoe rental business in Peterborough, where he remains active in the sustainable outdoor tourism space. As an avid camper, Luke spends as much time as he can in the field both to study and appreciate the natural environment and help others connect with the outdoors.
