Artist Lindsay Carron is making good progress on the mural painting on the side of the Whale Museum building. When finished, the mural will depict three orcas chasing salmon following forage fish through a bull kelp forest.

All who see the mural will know that the Whale Museum not only cares for their building, but are stewards of our marine environment as well.

Lindsay plans on the whole thing being done on Saturday, so if you want to see this art-in-progress, you’d better get over there soon.

It's always good to have some help with a project of this size. This is Sarah, Lindsay's helper
