Drifting Clouds, Denali- Kesler Woodward, 2002

Artists have had a major impact on the creation and development of America's national parks since the beginning of the national park movement. Denali's Artist-in-Residence program continues that tradition. Artists spend 10 days in the park, and later donate a piece of artwork to the park that reflects their experience during the residency.
