Owls have played many roles since the beginning of time in both art and society. Almost every country/religion or tribe has coined their unique version of the owl as good/evil/money bringing/birth controlling icon/god/token. Today Owls are threatened in many ways. Environmental changes, and human interference are amongst a few that impact upon their increasingly fragile existence. The World Owl Trust are a charity run organization, caring for owls and releasing them back into the wild, protecting areas of natural habitat around UK and throughout the world. HOO WOT is an art show to raise money for the WORLD OWL TRUST (WOT) and provide a platform to celebrate the Owl! 36 artists from all around the world present their unique vision/representation of the OWL. All art is for sale and 50% of sales will help many owls in need.
