The sudden, unexplained extinction of the Golden Toad of Costa Rica was one of the first indicators alerting scientists to the mysterious disappearances of some populations of frogs and toads around the globe. Anne LeBaron, who has worked with frog and other animal vocalizations in her music for the past three decades, will demonstrate how art and music can positively affect, and deepen, our awareness of the environment, and how our natural environment has historically influenced art and music.

Anne LeBaron's visit is held in conjunction with Environmental Horizons 2002.
