Join local artist Larry Iwerks throughout the afternoon at our Wild! Art Exhibit and Sale showcasing our region's beautiful backcountry wilderness.

Larry Iwerks, in the making of landscape paintings, feels strongly about the importance of preserving public lands across the West, from the red rock deserts of southern Utah to the coastal wilderness of the Los Padres National Forest.

Larry has served as Vice President for the Friends of Channel Islands National Park, and is a member of various art and land preservation groups, including Los Padres ForestWatch, Santa Barbara Art Association, S.C.A.P.E. (Southern California Artists Painting for the Environment), The Oak Group, Southern Utah Wilderness Alliance, and Journal of Studies Honoring Undeveloped Areas. Iwerks currently serves on the Advisory Board to the Desert Protective Council, and continues to paint and advocate for the permanent protection of national parks and public lands as wilderness.

Half of all proceeds of art sales benefit ForestWatch. Featured works include:
