This report for ABC Rural Radio, produced by Sarina Locke, features "Scottsdale: An Exhibition of Visual Art", on display in July 2007 at Australian National University's Foyer Gallery.  These artworks by staff and students from the ANU School of Art were inspired by their field trips to Bush Heritage's Scottsdale Reserve on the upper Murrumbidgee.  The report includes interviews with Lauren Van Dyke (Reserve Manager, Scottsdale) and Janet DeBoos (Head Ceramicist, and coordinator of this Field Studies project). 

"Environment and the Arts" is available on ABC Rural Report online.  For further information, refer to Bush Heritage's media release "Artists capture ecological and cultural essence of conservation" and supporting documentation, including the catalogue of the exhibition.
