World Animal Day is an occasion to admire the beauty of the natural world, and to contemplate ways to assist in its preservation. Studio Joli is marking the occasion with Feathers, Fur and Fins II: A Celebration of World Animal Day, a group art exhibition opening September 28, said a media release.

The call for submissions for this year’s show garnered responses from over 80 artists. This year’s show will feature a diverse selection of over 60 animal-related artworks by 26 talented artists. The participants include Ryan Williams, Rajesh Arjoon, Elspeth Duncan, Karina Maharaj, Marissa Yung Lee, and Beverly Fitzwilliam-Harries, to name just a few.
