Getting to Know the Birds is a multi-media body of work created by artist Celia Bower after working with the Juneau Audubon Society in the spring and summer of 2023. The pieces in this exhibition illustrate some of Celia’s experience with field work conducted over the season and is accompanied by journal pages that were created in the field.

Celia grew up commercial fishing out of Port Alexander with her family. Her unique upbringing cultivated a deep love and inspiration for local flora, fauna, and natural habitats. After obtaining a Bachelor of Science in Marine Biology, Celia began to pursue her artistic side. Since then, she has been creating art all over southeast, Alaska. Celia’s fishing background, and science training, largely informs her artistic process and subject choices.  Celia resides in Juneau but still spends part of the year hunting and fishing on southern Baranof Island.
