Salmon Conservation Stamp Art Competition 2011

Esther Sample

Winning Conservation Artist 2012-2013

"Hunger Strikes"

Since 1989, Pacific Salmon Foundation and Fisheries and Oceans Canada have been working together to support salmon and stewardship through the annual Salmon Conservation Stamp and Competition.

Any angler must purchase a new stamp each year and affix it to their tidal water license if they wish to retain any species of salmon. $1.00 of the proceeds from the sale of each conservation stamp is contributed to PSF to help support salmon restoration and enhancement efforts in BC. PSF also produces and sells limited edition prints of the winning painting each year to further assist fundraising for conservation initiatives.
These funds are what forms the base of the Community Salmon Program. If you saltwater fish for salmon in BC, you are a contributor to the conservation and restoration of salmon through the efforts of PSF.

Hosted by PSF, the 24th Annual Salmon Conservation Stamp Art Competition was won by Esther Sample's entry, 
"Hunger Strikes". Be sure to purchase your BC saltwater fishing license to obtain your 2012 -- 2013 conservation stamp.
