Future Leap's Wildlife Photography Gallery

The UK has a beautiful, diverse natural ecosystem that often goes unnoticed. With the Climate and Ecological Emergency playing an ever increasing part of our lives, it is time to draw attention to our most precious wildlife and natural habitats. With more attention and education on the beauty and fragility of UK’s biodiversity, we can better protect and support our island’s natural habitats.

On 25th January we will hold our Wildlife Photography Gallery Opening Night, a ticketed gallery view evening: 

• First view of the gallery 
• Inspiring talks including Doug Allan, Freelance Wildlife and Documentary Cameraman (best known for contributing to The Blue Planet, Planet Earth, Life, Human Planet and Frozen Planet) and Avon Wildlife Trust
• A free beer on entry
• Relaxed networking
• A bar 

The final exhibiting pieces will be judged by Niche Frames, where one winner will be chosen and announced on the Opening Night to receive a £100 voucher at Niche Frames.

This will be followed by a free walk-in month-long exhibition at Future Leap Hub, every day 9am-5pm (except Sundays).

Tickets to the Opening Night include a free beer on entry kindly donated by Lost and Grounded. There will be a paid bar for further drinks, please bring your ID.

This event is kindly sponsored by Niche Frames. 

Niche is a Bristol based business that has been picture framing since 1995. First started in Stokes Croft, the so called ‘beating heart of Bristol’, they quickly became an institution for upcoming artists and art buyers to take their work. They are now settled on Zetland Road, framing and printing for some of Bristol’s best artists and photographers.
