Jewels of the Cove at the Brockton Villa, April 9
What a magical evening at Jewels of the Cove ✨
Wildlife Jewels was delighted to host a special evening unveiling Jewels of the Cove™, our new educational art collection inspired by the extraordinary coastal wildlife of La Jolla, at the beautiful Brockton Villa.
It was an unforgettable night of art, wildlife, ocean-inspired sounds, ocean views, and community—bringing people together to celebrate these remarkable animals and the importance of protecting them.
Through art, we shared the beauty of the Cove’s wildlife while also educating the community about these animals, the Wildlife Jewels Rescue Crew, and how the public can support reporting, rescue coordination, and ongoing conservation efforts.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and supported this special evening 💙
Special thanks to Brockton Villafor so generously sharing their lovely space and providing delicious appetizers for our guests, and to The Ocean Alchemist for the beautiful animal and ocean-inspired sounds that made the evening even more special.
