Tim Laman's Rainforest Exposures LIMITED CAPACITY
Limited Capacity seats available

A rare chance to hear from the world’s leading rainforest image maker – photojournalist, biologist and National Geographic contributor, Tim Laman. With orangutans, it’s personal. He’s known some of them since they were born and has followed wild orangutans in the rainforests of Borneo and Sumatra for more than 20 years. With birds of paradise, it’s a passion that’s led to a career in the canopy. His pictures are not only intimate and unique but also vital – to show the world just how special these fast disappearing creatures are and what’s happening to their forest home.

Doors: 7.15pm for 8pm start
