Welcome to the “Knee Deep in Salmon” artist club Ella Morrison! This artist is a Vernonia local, born and raised! She has graciously stepped in to complete this salmon and get it “reeled” to the finish line! Thank you Ella for your help and support of this project, we appreciate your time and talent!

*Due to unexpected health concerns, the original artist released the fish back in hopes of getting it finished in time for the auction. We appreciate her and wish her a speedy recovery and look forward to having back next year!

Join us for the Vernonia Salmon Festival at Hawkins Park, October 3, 2026 10:00-5:00, auction is at 2:00! ❤️🐟🎨
