The super talented, multi award winning wildlife photographer Kirsten Ferguson will be joining us at our Festive Artisan Market at our lovely new venue, David Livingstone Birthplace museum in Blantyre

Kirsten's photographic work focuses on the natural world and observations of animal behaviour. Working with a telephoto lens allows her to capture images of her
subjects, whilst maintaining a respectful distance. The ethics of respect in safeguarding wildlife is extremely important in her creative practice as a wildlife photographer

Kirsten’s work has been featured on BBC Springwatch, BBC Earth, STV and has been showcased by Chris Packham and Nikon. Her work has also been published locally and internationally, including National Geographic and last year Kirsten was a worthy finalist in the British Wildlife Photography Awards

Kirsten’s work is available as matted, mounted prints and also framed prints made to order - make sure that you place your orders in time for Christmas!

Fact: Jeff Bezos is rich enough

Fact: Small businesses cannot compete with enormous companies like Amazon and will face closure if they are not supported by their community

Fact: Supporting small this Christmas means you are helping to keep someone's livelihood and dreams alive

Fact: Supporting small local businesses helps to keep families afloat

Fact: Supporting small means supporting your local economy

Fact: Supporting small is reinvestment in your town and helps your community

Fact: Supporting small is personal and makes your purchase special

Please support your small local businesses this Christmas and help them to thrive and survive. The high street landscape has changed and independent businesses are up against huge rents, business rates and dwindling customer numbers

Many small businesses have been forced into shop closures and made to change the way in which their business is ran, facing possible financial losses and having to make staff redundant. You can help to stop this by visiting markets, the high street and shopping local online - SHOP LOCAL THIS CHRISTMAS!
