Rock...Paper...Turtle Event is a art exhibit and fundraiser for The Wetlands Conservancy, a nonprofit whose focus is to preserve, enhance and provide education on Oregon's wetlands. The studio event and sales will be in multiple locations in West Linn and Lake Oswego, OR. Proceeds will support the habitats for the Western Pond Turtle
Rock...Paper...Turtle...Art for Wetlands idea began in November 2016, when Jan Rimerman and Dave Haslett began working on their 2017 exhibition schedule. Jan, a mixed media painter, and Dave, a stone sculptor, planned a show in their studio in West Linn in May 2017. Jan’s passion for turtles started in her twenties and has now expanded into saving the Western Pond Turtle at the Nyberg Wetlands in Tualatin while partnering with The Wetlands Conservancy.
Volunteers will greet studio guests, encourage guests to sign in, assist with refreshments and artists as needed. More information on the event can be found on our website:
