Sitka Center for Art and Ecol's Profile

Founded in 1970, Sitka Center for Art and Ecology fosters creative inquiry and education. The involvement, investigations, and creative work of artists and natural scientists help Sitka Center fulfill its mission to expand the relationships between art, nature and humanity through workshops, presentations and individual research projects. To accomplish this, Sitka Center maintains a facility appropriate to its needs in harmony with the inspirational coastal environment of Cascade Head.

Located on the central Oregon coast at Cascade Head Ranch near the Salmon River estuary, within view of the Pacific Ocean, Sitka Center is at the edge—a place where diverse people and ideas converge, co-mingle, and depart transformed. The dreams of the founders have been transformed into year-round programs that engage individuals in the creative investigation of art, ecology, and the space in between.
