Help create Bark's 10th Anniversary art exhibit

Bark is celebrating its 10th Anniversary of protecting Mt. Hood National Forest, and what better way to commemorate than with a Mt. Hood art show? But there's a twist.

Bark is seeking prominent Portlanders and other notable names who care about protecting forests to be the artists! Bark will provide the materials for recognizable personage X, and then they will take a few minutes to create a Pictionary-style sketch of one of the following: Mt. Hood, a favorite forest animal, or a favorite forest plant. The original sketches will be hung at a gallery show October 3rd in downtown Portland and auctioned off to a most eager and supportive public at our anniversary event.

This is where you come in (assuming you yourself are not famous). We need your help in getting our sketch materials into the hands of these and other famous folk.

STEP 1) Look at the list below and ask yourself "Do I have a connection to this person? Do I wish I had one? And do they care about the environment?"
STEP 2) Make your wish come true by emailing or calling Alex at Bark (503) 331-0374 or alex (at) bark-out.org and we will set you up with a promo packet.

That's it! Here's a list of potential names to get you started:
