BRIDGEPORT — The public is invited to celebrate and learn about endangered species during an event in the city next week.
The event takes place at the Color Blends House, 893 Clinton Ave. in Bridgeport, at 11:30 a.m. on Monday, May 6.
Endangered Species Day, which has been celebrated worldwide annually since it was started by the U.S. Senate in 2006, is typically celebrated on the third Friday in May. But the day will be celebrated early in Bridgeport.
On May 6, the city of Bridgeport is partnering with The Endangered Species Coalition, Sierra Club, Audubon Society, Nature Conservancy and Defenders of Wildlife for the Endangered Species Day event.
At the May 6 event, keynote speaker Christine Cummings, director of A Place Called Hope Birds of Prey Rehabilitation Center, will talk about her center’s two ambassador birds: a barn owl and a peregrine falcon.
Visit endangeredspeciesday.org to RSVP to the event.
