Mendocino Eco Artists (MEA) is an organization of artists who have the common goal of applying their talents to help conserve and restore the natural environment of our area.  The mission of MEA is to form partnerships with local environmental groups, and through joint projects, to use the members' art to help raise public awareness of the threats to the ecological balance, and to raise funds to support their projects.

Funds from sales from this exhibit will go to the Salmon Restoration Association to further their work in restoring salmon habitats in Big River which opens into Mendocino Bay.
