This spring and summer we are welcoming an exciting new photography exhibit that aims to inspire folks in the Olympic Peninsula area to join together to preserve this vital ecosystem and the livelihoods that depend on it. The Olympia and Lacey Timberland Libraries have agreed to host this exhibit in collaboration with the Puget Sound Estuarium. We are excited to share with you some unique perspectives on this vibrant estuary and the creatures that call it home.
The photo exhibit presents striking images from the book We Are Puget Sound: Discovering and Recovering the Salish Sea (Braided River, 2019); a book that features more than 20 regional photographers and showcases the many individuals working to find meaningful solutions to protect the Puget Sound’s waters, wildlife, and the human health and economic prosperity that this region supports.
The exhibit will be presented in two parts, each on display for two months. Visit Lacey Timberland Library in April and May to see the first half of the exhibit and then be sure to visit the Olympia Timberland Library in June and July to see the second half. Both libraries are open Monday through Saturday. You won’t want to miss this opportunity to see all these beautiful photographs for free!
