1 Welcome to the inaugural Festival of Art Culture and Environment of King Island – the ‘FACE’ of King Island April, 2019 ABOUT FACE FACE is a celebration and expression of Place – of King Island and of the natural environment that surrounds us all, wherever we are. The natural environment that we rely on completely for our lives and for our sense of well-being. FACE aims to help us recognize and celebrate our intrinsic and fundamental links with the natural world through our artistic expression – new and old, everyday and very special – the things we love. FACE is also a fund-raising event. King Island is beautiful and unique. Much of its wildlife - plants and animals live nowhere else in the world. To keep it this way we must love, nurture and care for it. We already have endangered birds and plants and the protection of these is paramount. Funds raised from this 2019 FACE will help support the Wings on King project that monitors the birds of King Island. It will help support the recovery of our critically endangered King Island subspecies – the King Island Brown Thornbill and King Island Scrubtit.
