Photo Safari

One of our talented artists, Kimerlee Curyl, has a unique opportunity to lead others through a photo safari at Return to Freedom, a wild horse sanctuary. The day begins with a short introduction of the facility and the current climate surrounding America's wild horses. Then they will spend three hours on a photo safari in the hills capturing the images of majestic wild horses under the guidance of Kimerlee Curyl.
