Scenic Quality

The often wild beauty of the gorge of Wissahickon Park as well as the serene loveliness of its upland meadow can be seen in these photos.

The scenic quality of the Wissahickon has inspired artists working in many media. A slide talk on "Art Inspired by the Wissahickon" can be presented to your group through FOW's Speakers Bureau. To schedule a speaker, contact Audrey Simpson at the FOW office at 215-247-0417 or office@fow.org.
