Wonders of Washington, Selections by First Lady Trudi Inslee

"As one born and raised in our beautiful state of Washington, I am honored to share this exhibition with fellow residents and those who have not been able to experience our state. This web exhibition reflects the diverse landscapes, wildlife, and cultures we embrace all across our state. The artists creatively used their talent to share their interpretations of their chosen subjects in a way that caused me to appreciate our state through their eyes. Enjoy!"

The First Lady was born and raised in Washington, graduated from Ingraham High School in Seattle and Washington State University in Pullman. Since then, she’s lived mainly in Selah (Central WA), Kitsap County (Western WA), and Olympia.
