Le Nichoir is a wild bird rehabilitation centre in Hudson, Quebec and is requesting the support and charity of artists. They already have about 260 artists who have committed to donating Wildcards and have received about 50 so far. We have received donations from 10 Canadian RCA members including:

Philippe Beha
Leslie Poole
Gathie Falk
Bruno Bobak
Joseph-Richard Veilleux
George Walker
Robert Bateman
Marcel Braitstein
John A. Schweitzer
Pnina Gagnon

We are doing a final push over the next week or so to find another 40 artists to meet our goal of 300. With the July 1st submission date looming, now is the time to ask if you know of any one else who might be interested.

Le Nichoir Wild Bird Rehabilitation Centre was founded in 1994 as a non-profit organization (#894112358RR001) and is located in Hudson, Quebec.

Le Nichoir is a licensed centre, part of a community of North American rehabilitators, supported by the International Wildlife Rehabilitation Council (IWRC) and the National Wildlife Rehabilitators Association (NWRA).

Our mission is to conserve wild birds as part of our natural heritage.
The Wildcard event is ...
•An event taking place Saturday, August 21st at the old Dominion Textile building on the Lachine Canal in Montreal.
•A sale of five by seven size Canadian and international art, signed on the reverse and sold for $65.
•A fun, fast paced sale because although the art is previewed, the buyer cannot see the artist’s signature until the purchase is complete and the card is handed to them.
•Financially supporting Le Nichoir because the $65 selling price of each work represents the average cost to rehabilitate and release one bird back into the wild.
•Able to offer a $65 tax receipt to the artist for each work donated.
The Wildcard event is open to all:
