The Wildlife Photographer of the Year exhibition, on loan from the Natural History Museum, will be back at Sewerby Hall and Gardens in 2023 with a brand new selection of photographs.
Earlier this year, the stunning collection of images from all over the world attracted thousands of extra visitors to the venue near Bridlington, and it is hoped that the 2023 exhibition will be equally popular during its stay from Saturday, 6 May until Sunday, 16 July.
Councillor Mike Medini, portfolio holder for culture, leisure, libraries and customer services at East Riding Council, said :
“We were extremely pleased with the success of this year’s exhibition, which drew people of all ages to Sewerby Hall and Gardens, some of whom travelled a long way for their visits.
“We know from the feedback we received that, overwhelmingly, people loved the exhibition and that many people also discovered Sewerby Hall for the first time. I am absolutely delighted that we have already been able to book the exhibition next year, when visitors will be able to see another brand new, thought provoking and inspiring collection of photographs from around the world.”
The exhibition features exceptional images which capture fascinating animal behaviour, spectacular species and the breathtaking diversity of the natural world. Using photography's unique emotive power to engage and inspire audiences, the images shine a light on stories and species around the world and encourage a future of advocating for the planet.
Wildlife Photographer of the Year is the most prestigious photography event of its kind, providing a global platform that showcases the natural world’s most astonishing and challenging sights for over 50 years. Launching in 1965 and attracting 361 entries, today the competition receives over 49,000 entries from all over the world, highlighting its enduring appeal.
