Some inspiring work done by students in Bangor, Maine!!!

John Burrows, ASF’s Vice President of US Operations shares;

“On May 3, students from the University of Maine and members of the local group Bangor Beautiful celebrated the unveiling of the new Penobscot River Ecology Mural on the Kenduskeag Pump Station building located in downtown Bangor, Maine, at the confluence of Kenduskeag Stream and the Penobscot River. This project seeks to draw attention and connect the local community to the vibrant Penobscot River ecosystem, and it highlights the importance of freshwater mussels and sea-run fish. The mural is the cultivation of a semester of work that brought together ecology and art through the collaborative teamwork between scientists, artists, undergraduate and graduate students, local high school students, and Bangor Beautiful. ASF provided financial support for the project.”
