Artists! We are now accepting applications for the 2009 Wildlife and Nature Art Expo. Please visit the For Exhibitors page to download exhibit instructions and an application.

The Wildlife Art and Nature Exposition, hosted by Fort Worden State Park & Conference Center, provides an opportunity for you to be educated, through art, about our environment and the wildlife that thrive in it.

In 2008, we highlighted the FISHER, the second featured species for this event. In February 2008, the National Park Service reintroduced the fisher to the Olympic Peninsula in the Olympic National Park. Speakers from the National Parks Service presented an informational program on the reintroduction program. By increasing awareness of these important wildlife programs via the show, we increase the success of the National Parks’ reintroduction plan for the fisher.
