A national landscape art exhibition and contest celebrating the outdoors.

The Fire Problem: Landscape Art Exhibition and Contest is designed to commemorate lands and parks while educating the public about the threat of fire and its impact to these natural and cultural resources. Using creativity as a catalyst for conservation, we hope artists will inspire change.

This public benefit project will help fund fire prevention research and fire prevention technologies through art auctions, exhibitions, and events.

Details coming soon.
