''A Litany of Salmon'' Art Exhibit

Description

Washington State University Vancouver Presents "A Litany of Salmon" Art Exhibit Oct. 7 A Litany of Salmon is an invocation to the millions of salmon that once thrived in the Columbia River Basin and are now extinct. Inspired by plummeting salmon populations in the Pacific Northwest, Eileen Klatt began a pilgrimage to all the rivers in the Columbia River Basin where salmon are extinct. Her quest led to A Litany of Salmon, 61 life-size paintings of salmon, each one dedicated to an extinct salmon population.
