TEMPO on the TRAIL “Conversation Stones” by Diego Miro-Rivera The Trail Conservancy’s mission is to protect, enhance, and connect the Ann and Roy Butler Hike-and-Bike Trail for the benefit of all. ARTS + CULTURE PLAN ● Enrich the community experience through art that complements the natural surroundings and preserves the Tril’s distinctive character. ● Commission work that surprises, challenges, and delights Trail users, artists, participants, and viewers; work that pushes the boundaries of creativity and understanding of place. ● Embrace the connection of the Trail to the world around it – community, city, watershed, ecosystem, and art. ● Connect artists to the Trail and its resources while connecting the Trail to communities and tourists/visitors.
