After a sell-out event in Wānaka, local conservationist and practising artist Chrissy Wickes will be returning to tell her story about working on the Subantarctic Islands!

Public Talk:  Learn about the wild, windswept world of Campbell Island - part of New Zealand's Subantarctic Island group - where Chrissy spent ten weeks working as part of a small team with the Southern Royal Albatross last summer.
