Donate to what is important to you

The annual gathering/auction/fundraiser of the Yamhill Watershed Stewardship Fund is Saturday November 10th.  It is an annual auction event, like so, so many other local groups who work on the needs of our community.  A long time member of the Stewardship Board Dave Hansen and a fellow artist on the Art Harvest Studio Tour sent out a poster for the Watersheds fundraiser.

In the past Dave has asked for donations and we have been happy to donate. Water and its watersheds is important to us.  This year before Dave could ask we asked him if he was collecting for the fundraiser.  He is.

Salter

I went into the studio looking for donations.  Who wanted to go help the Watersheds Fund?

Salter has been with me for a while and it was time to go out into the world and do some good.

To me Salter is a catlike creature who is patient and watchful.  A potential being of the watersheds.

Lock Nar

The studio is just recovering from the Art Harvest Tour and everything seems to have moved.    I looked for a companion for Salter.  Lock Nar has changed from a mild mannered uncle to a fierce guardian.  Paying attention.  Not to be messed with.  The Watersheds need to be paid attention to and they need to be guarded.

Hopefully Lock Nar will go home with someone on the evening of November 10th to hang at a special place and remind them that Watersheds are important.
