Beauty and Resilience- From Dismantling to Ecosystem Recovery
July 12- September 8, 2024
Opening Reception- Friday, July 12th | 5-7PM
Join us on a visual journey as we explore the artistry evoked from the renewal of the Elwha River. Through the eyes of artists who have come alongside researchers, engineers, tribal members, and advocates over the last 10 years in the process of dam removal and restoration, we see the beauty, resilience, and sublime power of this river ecosystem. Their artwork celebrates the spirit of collaboration and perseverance that made this restoration possible.
