On a recent beautiful fall day family, friends, and admirers of Nancy Foster gathered at the photography exhibit of Dwight Hiscano at Reeves-Reed Arboretum in Summit to honor her memory. Nancy was an avid reader and naturalist and donations of Dwight Hiscano’s book NEW JERSEY The Natural State were made to area libraries.

Focusing on libraries within the Great Swamp Watershed, Bernards Township, Bernardsville, Chatham, Harding township, Madison, Mendham Borough, Mendham Township, Morris County Library, and the Somerset Environmental Education Center received autographed copies of the book.

At the reception, friends and family of Nancy Foster took the opportunity to meet the artist and enjoy the exhibit of his photographs. Hiscano specializes in capturing the natural beauty of New Jersey on film. Foster had been a long-time trustee of the Great Swamp Watershed Association.

Great Swamp Watershed Association was created in 1981 to protect the Great Swamp watershed basin. Celebrating more than 20 years as a non-profit organization, the Watershed Association relies solely on membership and contributions to protect the continued health of our watershed’s area. If you’re not already a member, become one today. For more information, call (973) 966-1900, or visit their website at www.greatswamp.org.
