Mystic Osprey Gallery Donates Wildlife Ornaments to Raise Money for Lowcountry Raptors
Mystic Osprey Gallery is happy to announce its holiday charity partnership with Lowcountry Raptors. All proceeds from every wildlife, Christmas ornament sold at the gallery will go directly to the beautiful birds in the care of the charity which include owls, hawks, vultures, and falcons. Each ornament comes boxed with tissue paper, and is ready to gift. The ornaments are only available in-store, and not online.
“Lowcountry Raptors is a wonderful organization, doing important, educational work,” said Robert Howell, owner of Mystic Osprey Gallery. Lila Arnold, her volunteers and her birds visit classrooms, farmers markets, events, parks and libraries and for many people, especially kids, it’s the only opportunity to get close up to a live owl, hawk, or falcon and the programs teach people about raptors, predators and prey, conservation and habitat loss.”
“My wife, Emily, found terrific ornaments that were foxes, owls, cardinals, robins, bears, raccoons, hummingbirds and other wildlife creatures, so we decided to turn the ornaments into a fundraiser for Lowcountry Raptors. If you can’t make it to the gallery, you can also donate to the organization directly on the LowcountryRaptors.org website via paypal,” said Howell.
“Mystic Osprey Gallery had previously sponsored two of our birds, Breezy, a Barred Owl, and Sterling, a Merlin Falcon, so when they called and asked if they could do this, we were thrilled, and the ornaments are adorable,” said Lila Arnold, founder and leader of the Lowcountry Raptors charity.
Mystic Osprey Gallery showcases fine artists from around the country who explore Nature, Habitat, Wildlife, and Our Place Within. The work includes original paintings, prints, sculpture, jewelry, and ceramics.
“Mystic Osprey Gallery celebrates nature making Lowcountry Raptors a magical fit. These wonderful ornaments are a tiny reminder that there is much to do to protect our planet, its fauna, and flora,” said Howell.
Mystic Osprey Gallery is located at 23B Market, #1 in the Habersham Marketplace, Beaufort, South Carolina. Osprey’s hours are Tuesday-Saturday, 12pm-6pm. 843-475-6781. MysticOsprey.com
