Salmon Nation: Out of the Blue

Celia Brauer

Maureen LeBourdais

Louise Towell

After this show you will never look at salmon the same way again. Three artists, living in British Columbia communities, met through a watershed group. All passionate about salmon protection, clean water and healthy communities, these women created Salmon Nation: Out of the Blue to draw attention to issues and to inspire communities to honour water and the role is plays in all life.
Maureen LeBourdais, from the village of Horsefly, watches the same water flow down the Horsefly River and into the Fraser which Louise Towell can see from her Burnaby Home. It then flows to the False Creek inlet in Vancouver where Celia Brauer, the third contributor to this exhibition resides. Separated by land but connected by water these three artist have created a multi media exhibition that is sure to get viewers thinking and sure to change the way they view salmon.

The Station House Gallery is Open Monday to Saturday from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm.

Admission is by donation.
