Thank You for joining us for Camera to Canvas!

Stay tuned for information about our 2026 Wood River Run…

For over five decades, the James River Park System has provided inspiration to the millions who have hiked its trails, biked its paths, and paddled its rapids. What began as a donation of 380 acres has grown to well over 600 acres of urban wilderness.

Few have captured the magic of the Park as well as Friends of the James River Park System board member and photographer Bill Draper. Each year, we’ve invited our region’s best artists to choose one of his images as inspiration to create an original work of art.

Camera to Canvas brought those images and works together for a charity auction that supported our mission.
