Microcosm 2010

[skylsdale]

Tree Walkers International (TWI) is proud to present Microcosm, a celebration of life under glass. Microcosm is a new kind of event that brings enthusiasts together through the common bond of nurturing life within glass enclosures, from aquaria to vivaria, greenhouses and Wardian cases.

The theme of Microcosm is conservation. Just as species combine to form healthy, functioning ecoysystems, Microcosm seeks to form a coalition of partners who apply their skills in cooperation to safeguard the planet's biodiversity.

Microcosm will take place September 3-4, 2010 in Lynnwood, WA (a few minutes north of Seattle). It is a two-day event that will include field trips, lectures, workshops, vendor sale and benefit auction. All proceeds benefit Tree Walkers International to support amphibian conservation efforts.

More information will be added to the website in the coming weeks, so check back often to see how things are coming together, order tickets to reserve your spot at the conference, or sign up to be a vendor. The types of things we expect to see for sale include: orchids, bromeliads, amphibians, geckos, tropical plants, custom vivaria and enclosures, aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates, killifish and more.

We hope to see you there!
