We Are Puget Sound Exhibit

This spring and summer we are welcoming an exciting new photography exhibit that aims to inspire folks

in the Olympic Peninsula area to join together to preserve this vital ecosystem and the livelihoods that

depend on it. The Olympia and Lacey Timberland Libraries have agreed to host this exhibit in

collaboration with the Puget Sound Estuarium. We are excited to share with you some unique perspectives

on this vibrant estuary and the creatures that call it home.

The photo exhibit presents striking images from the book We Are Puget Sound: Discovering and

Recovering the Salish Sea (Braided River, 2019); a book that features more than 20 regional photographers

and showcases the many individuals working to find meaningful solutions to protect the Puget Sound’s

waters, wildlife, and the human health and economic prosperity that this region supports.

The exhibit will be presented in two parts, each on display for two months. Visit Lacey Timberland Library

in April and May to see the first half of the exhibit and then be sure to visit Olympia Timberland Library in

June and July to see the second half. Both libraries are open Monday through Saturday. You won’t want to

miss this opportunity to see all these beautiful photographs for free!
