ABOUT THE 2022 SYMPOSIUM ARTWORK
A panel of arts and land conservation representatives selected Monique DeLaTour, a Lowcountry artist based on St. Helena Island, as this year’s artist for the 2022 Lowcountry Land Conservation Symposium. Her piece, “St. Helena Fishermen,” represents this year’s theme and the importance of inclusiveness in land conservation on sustainability and climate resiliency.
