Salmon Stories

Distinguished Professor and Chair of Art and Art History Elise Richman was featured in Whitman College's Whitman Wire newspaper for her series "High Lonesome: Sanctuaries for Imperiled Snake River Salmon."

Her work will also be on view at Kittredge Gallery in March 2027.

A Win Five Years in the Making
