In summer of 2017, Lisa was an artist-in-resident with the US Forest Service kayak rangers in Tracy Arm-Fords Terror Wilderness, Tongass National Forest, Alaska. The Voices of the Wilderness Program is modeled after the National Park’s AIR programs but pairs artists with wilderness specialists in the National Park Service, US Forest Service, or US Fish & Wildlife Service, in almost a dozen locations around Alaska. Lisa spent six days kayak camping in Endicott Arm Fjord with Ranger Chrissy, on her rounds monitoring campsites, noise and visual intrusions, wildlife, as well as boarding tour boats for educational talks. She came back with a wealth of photos, videos, paintings, a glimpse of what it takes to manage a place for “Wilderness Character,” and a whole new appreciation for ice!

Grossman was selected from 90 applicants to be an artist-in-residence with the U. S. Forest Service in Tracy Arm/Ford’s Terror Wilderness, Tongass National Forest, Alaska, roughly 50 miles southeast of Juneau. She accompanied wilderness rangers on a kayak expedition up the Endicott fiord that included monitoring noise and air pollution, campsites, wildlife, removing invasive species, and boarding small cruise ships for educational talks. She painted on location and will continue painting around these stewardship goals for her donated project. She will be doing presentations in the community about her experience so stay posted for updates here and on her Facebook – artist page.
