BOLIVIAN CEREMONIAL HEADDRESS TRADITION MEETS CONSERVATION
This stunning Bolivian ceremonial headdress is a true work of art—so beautifully crafted that it appears to be made from real macaw feathers. Yet it is made entirely from sustainable artificial feathers made from palm fronds and cotton, without harming wildlife, and while preserving ancestral traditions. This extraordinary piece was hand-carried from Bolivia by Bennett Hennessey of Asociación Armonía and represents years of meaningful collaboration between Armonía and Indigenous communities in the Beni region of Bolivia, where the Blue-throated Macaw lives.

“I CAN FLY” ORIGINAL WATERCOLOR by John Brasaemle
This breathtaking original watercolor captures a truly unforgettable moment—the first flight of a Blue-throated Macaw chick. Making this piece especially meaningful, the artist based it on a photo taken by the late Laney Rickman of one of her beloved chicks. More than a stunning work of art, it is a tribute to vision, sacrifice, and hope—and to one person’s dream that sparked a movement to save this critically endangered species from extinction.
