Honoring Mary Kiesau: Inspiring Creativity, Connection, and Stewardship of the Methow Valley
Mary Kiesau’s deep passion for the flora and fauna of the Methow Valley left a lasting impact on many, with her stunning photographs adorning countless homes.
In her honor, the Mary Kiesau Community Fellowship Fund was established to carry forward her legacy. This fund supports independent creative and educational projects led by artists, photographers, naturalists, and educators, fostering professional growth, artistic expression, and a deeper connection between the community, the land, and each other.
