Big Changes to my “Workshop” site
For those that peruse my site often, you are used to seeing a link to my “Workshops” site, which has always been more than just workshops. It has now been re-built, and will include information on all types of events including seminars, presentations, online only events, as well as tours organized by partners.
It is officially our “Workshops, Events and Seminars” page, but you can find it by clicking “EVENTS” in the top menu.
You can view the content on the new site in a few different ways: a list, calendar by month, or a map.
We designed the site to be mobile friendly, as well as integrated with our new look. I hope you like the new Event site and look forward to seeing you at one of the events soon!
Highlights from my Winter Newsletter
Dear Friends,
I write this from aboard the Akademik Ioffe as we cruise along the Antarctic Peninsula. I am here with Denis Glennon, Shem Campion and Frans Lanting and having a terrific time. Denis offers excellent travel experiences and if you haven’t looked at his offerings lately, you should! Coming up in February is his Mystical Myanmar Tour with Gavriel Jecan and local guide Win Kyaw Zan. Change is happening in Myanmar at an unchecked pace and I recommend seeing it sooner rather than later. Also, this is a great time of year to get away to an exotic and warm part of the world.
Earth Is My Witness has been garnering accolades from top publications; among many features, American Photo has named it a “Best Photo Book of the Year” and it is an Editor’s Pick in O, The Oprah Magazine, “destined for keepsake status.” It is also a featured item on Breakthrough Photography’s Kickstarter campaign. Be part of helping to launch a new company and support a young entrepreneur in his drive to create new and better ultra slim filters. I have been using them for several months now and I’m really impressed with their quality.
You may have seen the short feature on Seattle’s KING5 News I did with Environmental Reporter Gary Chittim. I cannot stress how important it is to get out and reconnect with nature; it certainly keeps me grounded and much less stressed.
If you are in Seattle this month we have signed copies of Earth Is My Witness on hand, which would make any enthusiastic traveler, photographer, or art lover a thoughtful holiday gift along with tickets to the Earth is My Witness Presentation at Benaroya Hall in April. I would like to offer you a free Earth Is My Witness calendar with purchase of the Earth Is My Witness book (as long as supplies last) by using this coupon code in the store: witnesscal2015
Happy Holidays,
Art Wolfe

Opening of Windland Smith Rice International Awards Exhibition at the Smithsonian
Opening today on the 2nd Floor the National Museum of Natural History Presents the Annual Nature’s Best Photography Windland Smith Rice International Awards Exhibition.
Within a 4,000 square foot exhibition hall, 60 large-format prints are displayed—some at nearly life-sized proportions—with two accompanying HD videos. Museum visitors are taken along on a virtual global safari and are introduced to the image-makers and their stories from behind the camera lens.
Art is featured as the Photographer of the Year in recognition of his extraordinary body of
work over the past 40 years and the contributions he has made to natural history awareness. “Photographers everywhere are making a difference in the way we see the world and our place in it,” says Wolfe. “Never stop looking: no matter where you are,
there are good photographs to be made.”
Art will be doing a book signing of Earth Is My Witness on November 13, as well as attending the awards presentations that night.
