This year\u2019s theme is expanding views of Eastern Oregon – from the canyon views to the mountain tops and wide prairies<\/em>. The exhibit and theme continue our celebration of wild landscapes. Our visual definition of wild is landscape relatively unaltered by human development. Our goal is the continued appreciation of the diverse landscapes and unique places of Eastern Oregon. Nineteen artists are participating, and over forty-three paintings, photographs and mixed media images\u00a0 will be on display.\u00a0 Artists include local favorites David Jensen, Rick Bombaci, Leslie LeViner, David Martin, Jennifer Klimsza and many more.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

This year photographer Ellen Bishop and artist Mike Koloski will jury the exhibit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
