The Farmington River Watershed Association is excited to introduce a new Fundraiser/Outreach program. "Fabulous Fish for the Farmington" , is inspired by the natural diversity of the watershed, the beauty of fish, and the creativity of local artists.
The Fundraiser involves engaging local, national, and international artists to decorate life-size carved wooden fish. The folk-art fish will go on display prior to the auction in the new Pia Sjölin Design Gallery in Canton. You will have a chance to hook a fish of your own at a silent auction being held from April 1-16 ending with a gala the evening before opening day of fishing season.
Pia Sjölin, our resident Swedish artist has connected our local organization with the artist community in Alingsås, Sweden where the Säveån River has become our sister river.
