As part of the project, an art colony will be held in Radovljica in early October, at the home of academic painter Brigita Požegar Mulej. The colony participants will be introduced to the biology of the lynx, its habitat and the opportunities and challenges of large carnivore coexistence. Under the impression of new topics related to lynx conservation, participants will be working on their artwork as part of the colony until 8th of October. For the works created, an exhibition will also be organized at the Šivčeva hiša gallery in Radovljica, in November.
