A poster show exploring local parks, greenways, rivers and trails.
Our city sits at the confluence of three mighty rivers — the Mississippi, Missouri, and Illinois — at the end of the sprawling Missouri River valley. The rolling hills that cradle our neighborhoods are the transition between the grassy plains and the wooded Ozark Mountains. Forest Park is one of the largest and most beautiful urban parks in the world. Between Gateway Arch National Park in the East to the Katy Trail in the west, our region holds over 600 parks, 130 miles of greenways and over 100 miles of trails. The Local Lands STL Poster Expo celebrates this abundance of public outdoor spaces.
Meramec River
exploration & inspiration
sunset in the river bed
pondering my ambitions
trickling water disrupted
by protruding stones
light refracting into my eyes
bird songs echoing the valley
mud caked hands trembling
the stream flowing beneath my boots
to infinite destinations,
— possibilities
but always staying the course.
