On Saturday, people will be able to travel to the Autrey Mill Nature Preserve and Heritage Center in Johns Creek and see tidal pools, bogs, and caves.

Of course, those sights aren’t native to the 46-acre park off Old Alabama Road. They, and dozens of other images, are in photographs on display as part of an environmental education program called Still Small Voices.

Photographer Marc Del Santro will be talking about a new book he illustrated, called With Still Small Voices They Speak: A Journey into the Heart of Georgia’s Last Wild Places. The book was written by Anne Foskey.

Still Small Voices has been integrated into educational outreach programs of public and private agencies, such as the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, Fernbank Museum of Natural History, The Nature Conservancy, and The Atlanta Botanical Garden and Earth Share of Georgia.
