Focusing on native, threatened, and endangered plants, this exhibition helps us think about how important biodiversity is to the health of the regions we live in. Increasing awareness and knowledge of plants, plant life cycles and how to use them effectively in our lives is essential. How do we grow our future? Many regions need replanting after wildfires. Each artwork will be accompanied by the artist’s statement about the status of the plant and its habitat.
Due to fluctuating COVID-19 Guidelines for Butte County, our gallery has remained closed. The exhibit will be online only.
