CONSERVATION MATTERS: See wildlife works by W. Allan Hancock

New works by Allan Hancock including “Sanctuary – Spirit Bear” now at the Birthplace of B.C. Gallery

W. Allan Hancock’s new wildlife paintings are now showing at the Birthplace of B.C. Gallery. The Pacific Salmon Foundation chose Allan’s painting “Rapid Approach – Chum Salmon & Grizzly,” for the 2014 Salmon Conservation Stamp! The stamp is featured on the Tidal Water License and raises funds for salmon restoration and enhancement projects in BC. Since the program was started in 1989 well over 10 million dollars have been generated by the program for a wide range of projects directed at maintaining the health of the five species of Pacific Salmon and sea going trout. The Pacific Salmon Foundation works in partnership with volunteer streamkeepers and community organizations to magnify the impact of every dollar generated through the Salmon Conservation Stamp.
