This project was instigated by our founding father, Dan Masterson, who is renowned for his detailed ink drawings of northwest landscapes. La Center Arts Council held a wildlife illustration contest to collect images of local fauna and, with the cooperation of the City of La Center, have them reproduced on plaques to be installed along La Center's many miles of trails. 

The goal is to engage the public with their experience of our environment, bridging the arts with outdoor athletics and nature lovers.
